action  of  the  Unlt«a  States  senate  in 
finally  passing  the  Panama  Canal  bill 
has  been  watched  cICMMly  by  the  gov-

in  thti  House  last  session,  the  poflltlon 
being  taken  that  iiny  £|l»crlminatory 
privileges  accorded  lJn(£|[t«d  States 
shipping  would  be  a  violation  of  tbo 
Hay-Pauncefote  treaty.  With  that 
view  the  prime  minister  concutrtu).  It 
is  upderstood  that  Right  Hon.  R  U 
Borden  while  in  England  has  taken  up 
the  matter  with  the  r?ritlsh  authorf- 
ties^  to  whose  objections  <'.<naclaand 
Canadian   interests  arw  prtri^. 

The  protest  which  is  certain  to  fol- 
low the  final  imssii.sre  of  the  tneasure 
will  see  the  Canadian  «i)\ .  ;  ument  aa- 
soflated  with  Great  ilnt.-.In  r.ither  than 
acting  independently.  Tlie  view  ex- 
pressed here  in  official  circles  fully, 
coincides  with  the  contention  thai  th« 
action  of  congress  is  an  unque^Stionable 
violation  of  the  treaty-,  and  that  as^tbe 
United  States  senate,  In  the  face  of 
diplomatic  protests  and  tho  objections' 
of  sonic  of  its  greatest  constltutionaj- 
ists,  has  pa!»sed  the  bill,  the

OTTAWA,  Ont.,  Aug.  12.— -J.  A.  Rud- 
dkk,  dairy  and  coldutorage  couiniis- 
sloner,  has  returned  from  an  official 
trip,  ta  the  piitlrie  provliie-os  and  Brit- 
ish Columbia.  P-eorganizatlon  of  the 
fruit  inspection  in  Biliisli  Columlila  was 
the  principal  object  of  Mr.  Uuddlck'a 
mission,  but  ho  also '  examined  a  num- 
ber of  cold  storage  efiuipinenls  for 
which  application  has  been  .made  for  a 
government  subsidy.  This  duly  took 
him  to  several  points  along  the  coast, 
including  Queen  Charlotte  Islands  and 
Prince  Kuperl.  At  the  latter  point 
there  has  been  Icstalled  one  of  the  most 
up-to-date  storage  plants  in  the  country, 
hiving  a  capacity  of  700.000  cubic  feet. 
The  cold  storage  plants  along  the 
northern  district  of  British  Colurobla 
coast  are  designed  to  collect  and  distri- 
bute to  eastern  markets  large  quanti- 
ties of  fresh   fish. 

Mr.  Ruddlck  reports  the  prospects  to

Sifferances   of   Opinion 

.j|(i^Wpi^^^|Eng..  Aug.  12.— 'That  dif- 
f#riMiw*'w^«vlnlon  on  political  matters 
between  the  Chancellor  of  .the  ISx- 
chequer  and  the  Master  of  Eltbank 
was  the  cause  of  the  sacrifice  made 
by  the  latter  in  resigning  his  position 
as  chief  government  whip,  is  the  de- 
claration made  by  all  the  leading 
Unionist  papers. 

According  to  the  press  statements, 
Mr.  Alexander  Murray  had  stoutly  re- 
sisted the  Chancellor's  X^ind  Tax 
policy,  the  prlnclplies  of  which  he  could 
not  agree  with.  Consequently,  tc*  avoid 
internal  dissent,  the  Master  of  Kltbank 
resigned  his  political  position  at  what 
.-t^ems  a  considerable  sacrifice  to  hlm- 
Helf,  as  he  was  on  the  threshold  of 
\vhal  nUght  ha\e  proved  a  great  politi- 
cal career. 

Nevertheless,  It  Is  announced  thiit  the 
late  government  whip  may  return  to 
politics  m  ftVe  years'  time. 

Advocates  of  the  land  tax  are  jubi- 
lant, and  hope  that  with  the  removal 
of  one  of  tKelr  declared  opponents,  a 
clearer  field  for  the  pushing  ahead  of 
their  policy  will  be  open  to  them.

pressed liimself  ■\vitu  anxiety  as  to  the 
need  of  means  to  harvest  and  move 
the  crop. 

"Two  things  are  badly  needed  in  the 
west,"  said  the  minister,  "farm  labor- 
ers to  assist  in  saving  the  great  crop 
ana  batter  :*ilway  facilities.  The  west

is  giving  the  Lfsc  possible  management

sufficient  track  nor  sufficient  rolling 
stock  to  take  care  of  half  the  business 
that  Js  being  offered.  The  came  con- 
ditions prevail  In  a  lesser  degree  on 
the  C.N.R.  As  for  the  GT.P.  they  are 
not  now  and  never  have  done  much  to 
reliev.-^  the  •:nnditlon«.  They  are  greatly 
handjiapped  by  reason  of  the  fact  that 
their  Lne  has  been  constructed  and  op- 
erated as  an  adjunct  of  a  political 
party,  and  not  with  a  view  of  taking 
Its  pi'"'-  as  »  legitimate  competitor  for

Time  Coming  When  Political 
Federation  and  Fiscal  Union 
Will  Be  Real  issues  Says 
Mr.  J,  S.  Willison, 


ADDRESSES   VANCOUVER 

CANADIAN    CLUB 


V.VNCOUVER,  Aiir-ist  12,— That 
Canada's  future  lies  within  the  empire 
was  the  keynote  of  the  speech  deliv- 
ered to  the  Canadian  club  at  Pender 
hall  today  by  Mr.  J.  S.  WllllHon.  editor 
of  The  Toronto  News,  and  In  the 
course  of  his  address  he  stated  his 
belief  that  the  time  was  c6nilng  when 
the  polHIoal  federation  and  fiscal  union 
of  the  British  empire  would  be  a  real 
Issue. 

Mr.  Willison  commented  on  the 
growth  of  the  West,  and  said  that  Can- 
ada was  harvesting  the  grains  of 
civilization  for  mankind.  He  referred 
to  conditions  which  formerly  exlstsd 
when  Canada  bred  men  for  the  United 
States.  "ThiinU  Ood,  those  conditions 
havt»  disappeared,"  he  said,  "and  now 
we  lire  breeding  citizens  for  western 
Caim-dn.  One  does  not  reallxe  what 
Canadian  citizenship  inenns  until  one 
has  crossed  the  plains  and  entered  this 
beautiful    province." 

■h«aM  Xbow  the  West 

Mr.  Willison  also  advanced  the  novel 
theory  that  no  member  of  the  IJomin- 
ton  parliament  should  take  his  seat  be- 
fore he  had  speht  at  least  two  months 
in  the  west,  and  he  also  thought  that 
mentbera  6f  the  British  cabinet  should 
tour  ^tbe  ox-ersea  dorpltvions.  "The  at- 
titude of  the  east  Is  one  of  pt-ide  In 
the  west,-  said  Mr.  WllHson.  'Wa

First  Sitting  Held  Yesterday, 
at  Which  Alternative  Forms 
of  Civic  Government  Are 
Discussed, 


Beginning  promptly  at  the  appointed 
time  and  getting  down  to  business 
without  any  delay,  the  members  of  the 
royal  commission  on  municipal  gov- 
ernment yesterday  began  their  sittings. 
The  commission,  which  consists  of  Mr. 
VVllilam  H.  Keary,  of  New  Westmin- 
ster, as  chairman;  Mr.  H.  A.  Maclean, 
K.  C,  of  this  city,  and  Mr.  A.  E.  Bull! 
of  Vancouver,  is  meeting  in  the  execu- 
tive council  chamber.  Two  busy  ses- 
sions were  held  yesterday  and  the 
commissioners   will    «it   again    today. 

The  commission  form  of  municipal 
government,  as  it  Is  called,  was  the 
first  proposal  brought  to  the  attention 
of  the  commissioners,  three  or  four 
gentlemen  dealing  with  it  In  support  of 
the  suggestion  that  It  be  made  permiss- 
ible by  the  municipal  act  for  any  ctly 
that  so  decided  to  adopt  It.  These 
differed,  however,  as  to  the  form  of 
selection,  one  being  in  favor  of  ap- 
pointment by  the  provincial  executive, 
another  of  election  by  the  people  at 
large  and  a  third  election  by  ratepayers. 

Others  agreed  that  there  was  somj- 
thing  wrong  with  the  working  out  of 
the  present  system,  but  suggested  that 
what  was  wanting  was  a  oontlnuFty  of 
service,  which  could  he  att.-ilned  by  the 
increasing  of  the  length  of  service  of 
aldermen  or  councillors,  and  the  retire- 
ment of  members  of  a  council  at  the 
rate  of  one-third  annually,  if  a  three- 
yeflr    term    was   adopted. 

iClectlon  of  police  and  license  com- 
missioners by  the  people,  control  of 
the  streets  by  cities  as  against  public 
corporations,  power  to  regulate  places 
of  amusement,  protection  of  the  public 
from  danger  by  high  tension  power 
wires  and  several  other  matters  were 
discussad.  All  through  the  sessions 
the  three  commissioners  Interjected  fre- 
quent questions,  and  beirrg  all  in- 
timately acquainted  with  municipal 
legislation  and  practice  were  able  to 
put  Interrogations  which  cleared  the 
ground  and  got  down  to  the  fact  and 
arguTnents    at    once. 

The  morning  sitting  began  with  the 
reading  of  the  royal  commission  by 
Mr.  .lames  Morton,  secretary  to  the 
board.  This  directs  the  commlssionori 
to  Inquire  Into  the  present  system  of 
municipal  government,  whether  author- 
ized by  special  act  or  any  general  act 
relating  to  municipalities,  including

NEW    UNIVERSITY 


Appointment  to  be  Made  With- 
in a  Few  Days — Indians' 
Claim  to  Lands  of  British 
Columbia, 


— VAyfCOWBn.  August  12.— Sir  Rich- 
ard McBride  stated  this  evening  that 
no  appointment  had  >-et  been  made  of 
a  head  of  the  new  university,  but  th^t 
It  would  be  done  In  the  course  of  a 
few  days.  He  also  stated  that  thero 
would  be  betv/een  five  and  six  hundred 
people  at  the  university  convocation  to 
be  held  in  Victoria  on  .^.ugust  21.  The 
various  faculties  would  be  organized 
In  time  for  the  classes  in  the  fall  of 
1913. 

The  premier  stated  that  he  expected 
that  the  Canadian  Northern,  the  Ket- 
tle Valley  Una  and  the  Pacific  Great 
Eastern  would  all  be  in  operation  be- 
fore the  expiration  of  the  time  fixed  in 
their  contracts.  From  the  outset  the 
provincial  government  had  counselled 
the  Pacific  Great  Eastern  company  to 
favora!>ly  consider  tiie  purchase  of  'the 
Howe  Sound  and  Northern  Railway,  a 
Vancouver  corporation  operating 
ating  11  miles  of  main  line  and  branch- 
es and  owning  a  charter  covering  vir- 
tually the  same  route  to  Llllooet.  It 
is  olivious  that  the  building  of  the 
larger  system  will  tend  to  handicap  the 
smaller  road,  and  the  government,  for 
its  part,  is  always  desirous  to  see  that 
local  interests  are  safeguarded. 
Hope  Mountain  Xdns 

"Construction  of  the  Kettle  Valley 
line,"  said  the  premier,  "is  making 
g;ood  progress.  Plans  of  its  proposed 
railway  and  vehicular  traffic  bridge 
across  the  Fraser  river  at  Ruby  Cree'.t, 
connecting  with  the  C.  P.  R.,  will  be 
prepared  shortly.  The  government  Is 
aiding  the  bridge  to  tUe  extent  of  $^25#- 
000,  in  addition  to  the  grant  of  $10,000 
a  mile  for  50  miles  of  the  road,  whicli 
will  cross  the  Hope  mountains  and 
provide  a  direct  line  from  the  coast  to 
the  Simllkameen  and  the  Kootenays. 

"The  proposed  double-tracking  of  the 
C.  P.  R.  now  in  progress  is  of  import- 
ance to  the  whole  province,  and  I  have 
the  assurance  of  knowing  that  Vice- 
President  'Bury  and  Mr.  F.  W.  Peters, 
general  superintendent  of  the  British 
Columbia  division,  -vvill  rush  the  work 
to  completion.  The  expenditures  to  be 
Incurred  by  our  pioneer  road  will  run 
Into  millions,  and  it  is  necessitated  by 
the  ever-increasing  traffic.  The  C. 
P.  R.  is  also  displaying  great  energy 
with  its  extensions  on  Vancouver 
Island,  as  well  as  on  the  Kootenay 
Central  through  the  Columbia  and 
Kootenay  Valleys."  '   , 

The  premier  stated  that  Dr.  Mc- 
Kenna,  of  Ottawa,  was  still  in  Vic- 
toria negotiating  a  settlement  of  all 
outstanding  questions  connected  with 
Indian  reserves  in  the  province,  and  he 
expected  an  amicable  agreemnt  at  on 
early  date.  The  government  would  not 
recogni/.e  the  contention  that  the  In- 
dians are  entitled  to  a  share  in  all  the 
lands  in  British  Columbia.

Columbia  Society  of  Architects,  setting 
forth  a  resolution  of  that  l)ody  recently 
passed,  urging  upon  the  council  the  ne-

matter  not  only  on  Mr.  Mawson's  ac- 
count, but  for  the  good  name  of  Vic-

can  t&ke  to  secure  redress.  Acting 
Mayor  Okell  rose  to  a.  question  of  privi- 
lege at  last  night's  meeting  of  the  city 
council  to  refer  to  a-  communteatiori 
written  by  Mr.  W.  J.  Taylor.  soUcUer 
for  the.  Westholme  Lumber  company, 
and  appearing  In  Sunday  mornings 
Colonist. 

Mr.  Taylor's  letter  wk.H  relative  to 
certain  statements  which  Alderman 
Okell  made  at  the  hecent  session  of  the 
council  at  which  the  .status  of  the 
Westholme  Lumber  company,  as  con- 
tractors for  the  Sooko  Lake  develop- 
ment work,  was  gon,»  Into  and  which 
resulted  In  the  company  being  given 
anotl,"r  four  weeks  within  which  to 
lomplele  arrangements  for  the  delivery 
of  materials  for  the  pliie  line.  Mr.  Tay- 
lor took  exception  to  the  iilderman's 
statement  that  Mr.  Taylor's  renmrk.s 
made  at  a  v>revl(Hi.«i  meeting  between 
the  special  committee  of  llie  council 
and  Mr.  Cameron,  president 
comipnny  and  himself 
the  c(imi)any,  w 
the    facts. 

Alderman  <>l<ell  last  nlglit  dfcbired 
he  stuck  to  his  statement  as  made  at 
Jhe  council  nieetlng  and,  in  fact,  it 
was  wholly  In  consideration  of  the 
company  that  he  did  not  say  as  mucli 
relatlvn  to  the  comttany'a  work  under 
(lu-  eontrn<-t  and  Its  flOHnclal  status  a.s 
lie    might    l.ave    done. 

Alderman  Cuthbert  stated  that  he 
had  not  advocated  the  same  cour.<'e  to- 
wards the  company  as  Alderman  Okell 
-  that  the  company  he  i)Ut  off  the 
work;  but  he  advocated  the  company 
lielng  allowed  to  continue.  Still,  he 
was  prepared  to  take  Alderman  Okell's 
statement  In  preference  to  anything 
Mr.  Taylor  might  saj'  to  the  contrary, 
and  he  (Alderman  Cuthbert)  had  no 
doubt  that  It  was  Mr.  R.  T.  Elliott's 
presence  In  t^c  council  chamber  In 
the  place  of  Mr.  Taylor  whb  h  had  led 
the  council  to  deal  with  the  company

graspeii.  her   and    tried   to    hold    the    boat. 
She    broke    away,    and    he    grasped      the 
boat  again  and   tried   to  work  It   toward 
h,er.    without    result.      He    clung    to    the 
boat   for   about    an    hour.      Both   shmited

Thev     vainly     tried       resuscitation       and 
telephoned       Dr.       Bapty.         The         Jury 
brought    In    a      verdict       of      accidental

The  remains  of  the  late  Miss  l-'rlond 
are  being  held  at  Menars.  Hands  &  Ful- 
ton's parlors,  pending  word  from  rela- 
tives of  the  <loceased  In  Glasgow,  who 
have  been  apprised  of  their  loss.  A 
gloom  wais  east  over  the  Y.W.C.A.  on 
Courtney  street  where  the  deceased  ban 
been  residing,  when  the  news  of  her 
untimely  death  was  received  late  on 
Saturday  night.  Slic  had  only  been  here 
for  four  d«ys.  arrlvln.i;  on  the  fith  Inst, 
from  Montreal,  where  slic  had  been  em- 
ployetj  as  a  governess  tipon  coming  out 
from  Scotland  eighteen  months  before, 
it  had  been  her  intention  to  find  work 
of    a    similar    kind    In    tbi.t    city. 

Sitting  in  the  home-like  little  office 
of  the  association  building  yeHterda\. 
Miss  Johnson,  the  matron  of  the  Y.  W. 
C,  A.,  paid  a  warm  tribute  to  the  mem- 
ory of  tlie  little  Scotch  girl  wlio  passed 
away  In  so  tragic  a  manner  thousands 
of  miles  from  her  home  and  loved  ones. 
The  deceased  was  a  l)rlKht,  sunny-nal- 
ured  girl,  who  quickly  made  friends 
with  those  with  whom  she  came  in  con- 
tact. She  was.  moreover.  extremely 
musical,  and  at  the  very  time  of  her 
death  was  singing  to  her  companion, 
while  by  a  curious  coincidence  the 
Bong  she  had  chosen  was  "Hocked  in 
Vf    t.'radle  of  the  Deep." 

S!u  It  survived  by  a  ft.tlier,  reported

leadership,  were  well  executed.  SpeclB.I 
mention  should  be  made  of  the  trom- 
bone solo.  "Evening:  Star"  (Tann- 
hauser), by  Mr.  G.  Qalger,  and  the  con- 
cert solo,  "The  Lost  Chord,"  by  Mr.  D. 
Rife.  Mme.  Burnett  received  entliusV- 
astlc  applause  -from  the  audience  for 
her  very  fine  rendering  of  "I..ead  Kindly 
Light."  arid  "When  Shadows  Gather," 
and  in  each  case  She  received  an  encore. 
Uev.  Sydney  Lindridge  spoke  for  a  short 
nime  on  the  meaning  of  "Religion,"  his 
definition  of  the  word  being  that  It 
seemed  to  hlni  the  expression  of  the  di- 
vine nature  In  the  .soul  of  man.  and  hf 
laid  emphasis  on  the  idea  that  this 
realization  of  the  divine  life  within 
must  find  expression  In  practical  form. 
Mr.  LIndrldge's  well-chosen  remarks, 
delivered  in  his  usual  vigorous  manner, 
were  listened  to  with  great  attention  by 
the  large  gathering.

Point  Elllce  bridge,  regarding  the  cost 
of  the  culvert  to  b«  erected  in  the  centre 
of  the  fill  at  the  head  of  .Rock  Bay. 
the, paving  work  proposed  for  that  por- 
tion of  the  thoroughfare  now  occupieii 
by  the  culvert,  will  not  bo  gone  on 
with.  A  new  culvert  of  concrete,  suf- 
ficient to  support  the  new  pavement, 
would  cost  in  the  neighborhood  of  J5,ooo, 
and  as  the  cost  of  constructing  such  a 
work  was  not  included  In  the  estimate 
of  cost  of  the  street  Improvement,  the 
owners  cannot  be  as.seesed  for  tin-  cul- 
vert unless  they  unanimously  agr«>8  to 
assume  tho  cost.  .So.ne  of  the  owners 
are  willing  to  do  So.  but  Others  are  not, 
and  as  the  city  at  present  has  no  funds 
available  for  the  work,  the  expedietu  of 
leavInK  out  the  pavem»nt  st  that  par-

CANADIAN   NORTHERN 

APPROACHES    ALBERNI 

The  Canadian  Northern  Island  section 
Is  being  proceeded  with  spordlly  and 
the  surveyor.<(  are  now  working  through 
Albernl.  to  the  jrreat  Joy  of  the  people 
In  that  town,  who  were  the  other  day 
before  the  Dominion  Railway  commis- 
sion here  asking  that  the  C.P.R.  be 
compelled  to  stop  Its  trains  there  and 
not  run  past  without  even  slowing  on 
Us   way   to   the  npw   town. 

If  the  surveyors'  lines  tentatively 
adopted  are  carried  out  the  line  will 
run  alouK  Gertrude  .street,  with  the  sta- 
tion somewhere  near  Kitsucksus  creek, 
and  will  then  pass  on  towards  Port  Al- 
bernl back  of  Copper  mountain,  which 
will  rnean  that  the  residents  of  the 
new  town  will  have  tn  go  some  dis- 
tance to  the  railway.  It  Is  stated  by 
the  engineers  that  to  go  alonp  the  fuce 
of  Copper  mountain  would  prove  very 
expensive  on  account  of  the  engineer- 
ing difficulties,  but  that  a  route  at  the 
back  would  give  a  good  grade  and  a 
line   much   less   expensive   to  build. 

The  company  look  to  having  Its  line 
Into  A'"iern!  this  year  and  construction 
will  then  go  «m  on  the  section  north- 
ward. For  this  section  a  lar^e  por- 
tion of  the  jiupplies  are  to  bo  taken  In 
by  Albernl  cenal.  It  Is  understood,  and 
It  Is  possible  that  the  old  town  will  b^ 
the   divisional    point.

Two  correspondents  wriTe  us     about,

Our  own  InhHinNMlldn  is  that  possibly  a 
majority  of  'rii«flt  are  not  opposed  to 
granting  the  suffrage  to  women,  but 
there  has  been  no  demonstration  that  a

It  is  a  very  stientific  person  who 
asks  the  question  In  the  above  captian. 
He  Is  Henry  Smith  Williams,  and  he  Is 
an  M.D.  He  says  In  a  late  majcazine 
that  he  woitld  like  some  one  to  say  why 
a  man,  who  has  lived  a  regular  and 
perfectly  healthy  life  for  thirty  years 
might  not  continue  to  do  so  for  three 
hundred  or  three  thousand.  it  is  al- 
leged that  within  u. century  the  averase 
duration  of  life  has  been  extended  from 
twenty  to  forty  years.  Wc  have  before 
Us  two  tables  of  expectation  of  life,  one 
prepared  from  statistics  gathered  in 
Brighton,  England,  and  the  other  from 
statistics  from  the  stato  of  Massachu- 
setts. The  tables  apply  to  males  only, 
and  the  former  gives  the  expectation 
of  life  at  birth  at  44.99  years  and  the 
latter  at  44.09  years.  If  we  put  the 
average  for  the  whole  civilized  world 
at  40  yt^rn,  we  shall  probably  not  be 
far  astray.  It  Is  quite  certain  that 
this  average  Is  much  higher  than  that 
of  11  century  ago,  but  wo  may  doubt 
If  the  statistics  of  the  early  part  of 
the  .Mneteenili  t'entury  were  aufflrlfnt- 
ly  authentic  to  warrant  any  very  cer- 
tain   concluslonii.

One  day  during  th^i|ijjji^tt^ent  over 
the. Trent;  affair  two'^i^^^^t  talking 
to   a   big   private     of     the     Grena:dier 
Guards  as  that  famous  regiment  was 
passing  through  New  Brunswick  on  Its 
way   to  what  might   be   the   scene  of 
hoatlHtles.     One    of    the   tads    said:    "I 
.suppose  any   EngUshnian  can  lick  two 
Russians."     The  Crimean    nnr  had  not 
been   «o  long  ended   that  boys  did  not 
talk  of  .A.Ima.  Inkerman  and  Balaclava. 
The  big  fellow  laughed  and  answered: 
"N'o,  lad,  he  couldn't;   but  It's  a  mighty 
good    thing    to    think    .10    when    you    go 
Into   a    fight."     The   boys   fejt   sad.  for 
one  of  their  pet  helle/s  had  been  shat- 
tered by  a  man  who  knew;   but  as  they 
grew  older  one  of  them,  at  lea.st,  began 
to   appreciate  the   latter  part      of      the 
Grenadier's  remark:    "It's  a  good  thing 
to    think    so" — that    it   Is   a  go.xl    thing 
to    think    that   your    country    can    hold 
its  own  against  odds.     That  Is  not  the 
tale  told  us  now.     We  have  a  new  kind 
of    patriotism    nowadays,    a    patriotism 
which    forgets    the   triumphs      of     the 
Union  Jack  on  land  and  sea  and  dreams 
only   of   disaster.     It    was    not    by    men 
who  brooded  o\er  their  Inferiority  that 
t'ressy    and   .\glncourt    were    won.        It 
was   by    the .  deeds    of   men    who   could 
say,  as   Wellington  did   two  nights  be- 
fore Waterloo.  "We'll  lick  them  there," 
that  "the  roar  of  Hugouniont"  left  Bri- 
tain     mightiest   of  nations  under  hea-

heights  of  Alma,  who  would  "hae  none 
but  lllelan'  bonnets"  there,  would  liave 
scorned  to   think    that    mere     numbers 
were  everything  when  British  boys  get 
out  to   win    the  day.     It   is   time  to  tell 
again    the   story    of  Inkerman.     Let   us 
brush    up    our    me<u<vcv«s-  -of .  Lucknow. 
Let  us  cease  this  pestilential  talk  about 
l.rltlsh    inferiority    on    land,    on    water 
and  In  the  air.

Manlclpal  Swimming  Hatha 

Sir. — The  recent  lamentable  drowning 
casea  surely  servo  to  empiiasize  tha 
need  In  pur  city  of  a  public  Institution 
where  the  art  of  swimming  could  be/ 
acquired  by  everybody.  The  little  lad 
who  rolled  off  a  log  at  Cordova  Bay 
was  drowned  Within  30  feet  of  the 
shore.  A  yotinic:  man  lost  his  life  by 
the  capsizing  of  a  boat  at  the  Gorge 
and  na.'^  not  far  from  dry  land  C'lther, 
and  the  engineer  who  fvll  overboard 
from  the  tug  Mystery  would  have  been 
saved  had  he  bt-vn  able  to  sustain  him- 
self afloat  for  the  brief  minute  and  a 
half,  wjilch  wa.s  the  time  required  by 
his  shipmates  to  reach  the  spot  In  a 
rowboat. 

Saturday  last  a  youns  girl,  wa-s 
drowned  in  the  water?  of  the  Arm,  and 
similar   occurr<n.  frequent 

where  a   little   n:M  ■  .lil      would 

.serve    untU   help   arrived. 

Instead  of  allowing  these  regrettable 
records'  to  increase,  as  tihey  certainly 
will  unless  means  of  safeguarding  life 
arc  undertaken,  it  behooves  our  <?ltl- 
zens  to  provide  for  themselves  a  pub- 
lic utility  of  vital  Importance  to  a 
maritime  city. 

To  servo  Its  purposes  to  the  utmost 
in  the  public  welfare,  and  at  a  mlhl- 
mum  of  cost  to  the  users,  the  natator- 
lum  should  be  municipally  owned  and 
operated  as  is  done  quite  auccessfuUy 
in  many  European  and  colonial  cities, 
where  municipal  baths  are  sustained  by 
means  of  their  own  revenues. 

If  the  building  be  so  arranged  as  to 
Include  a  number  of  hot  and  cold,  salt 
and  fresh  water  tub  baths,  and  if  ac- 
commodation be  provided  for  specta- 
tors at  swimming  carnivals,  aquatic 
sports,  etc.,  the  revenues  would  be  sub- 
stantially augmented,  and  thus  the 
biiths  become  no  burden  whatever  upon 
the  ratepayers.  < 

In  conclusion  I  would  earnestly  urge 
that  the  matter  of  munlcl^pal  swlm- 
iiilnR  baths  be  p«ld  the  serious  atten- 
tion which  the  subject  deservos,  and  be 
taken  up  In  a  broad-mlndnrl.  t'nhlle- 
splrltetj  manner.

yir, — A   few   days    ago    you     devoted 
three-quarters    of   a    column     bf     your 
front  page  to  the  militant  siiffrfrtetifS  ' 
of    Great    Britain    with    reference    f. j    a 
recent    militant    out'oreak. 

When  .Mrs.  Pankhnr.st  was  in  Wc-

meeting  In  the  theatre— a  meeting  of 
the  most  ordcrl.\-  descrljuion.  at  wlilch 
four  or,  five  cabinet  nilnisters  were 
present,  you  would  Mot  give  the  occa- 
sion  any    publicity   at   all. 

This  la  exactly  on  all  iMur.'s  wltli  the

.silr: — I  ace  by  your  comments  on  the 
sentences  pas.«>ed  on  the  suffragettes 
recently  in  Dublin  and  In  London,  that 
■your  correspondents  .from  the  old  coun- 
try have  given  you  a  one-sided  view 
of  th^-aituation  there.  I  know  all  fair- - 
mlndcil  Canadians  would  be  anxious  to 
have  the  true  facts  of  the  case,  so  T 
sliould  be  very  much  obliged  if  you 
would  permit  me,  through  your  col- 
umns, to  point  out  a  few  truth.s  from 
the  suffragist  point  of  view. 

First,  1  should  like  to  remind  peo- 
ple on  this  aide  of  the  Atlantic,  that 
the  present  Britl.ili  gqvernment.  and 
the.v  olone,  are  resiuoislble  morally  for 
the  acta  of  .vlob  net-  to  which  the  .suf- 
fragettes hava  been  driven.  If.  Mr.  As- 
tiuith  and  his  followers  would  treat  he 
suffrage  question  with  fairness  mid  its 
supporters  with  lu.stlce  militant  method.'? 
would  wltlioiit  doubt  Imiiiorllatcl.v  cea;o'. 
There  is  an  overwlielmJug  majority  In 
favor  of  woman's  suffi-agc  in  the  House 
of  Commons,  yet  owing  to  the  dealt  e 
of  the  dlrierent  parties  to  flght  e.\- 
iloslvely    for   their   own   particular   blll.s 

such  as  Home  Rule  and  Welsh  Uls- 
estaldishmcn — the  nn|\-  measures  that 
c«n  sa  through  most  be  backed  by  thi? 
Kovernment.  The  Women's  .Social  mid 
PollUraV  Union  therefore  ask«  that  a 
woii.an's  suffrage  bill  aliall  be  lotrodiic- 
cd  as  a  gov  eminent  measure.' This  Mi-. 
Lloyd  George  and  other  so-called'  .suf- 
fiasrlsts  In  the  cabinet  refuse,  to  do; 
therefore,  the  only  course- left  to- suf- 
fiagist.s  l.«  to  oppose  the  government 
at  every  tiiin.  to  8ht>w  them  that  the 
pi'ople  will  not  submit  to  ti  govern- 
ment of  which  they  disapprove.  Thl.** 
pollfv  is  followed  by  the  W.  a.  P.  V. 
at  every  by-election  and  wins  them  sym- 
pathy of  the  elector.*  as  Is  shr, ivn  by 
the  great  reduction  of  the  Lloeral  m«-

Tfic  work  .->:  iiic  forester  In  protec- 
tion/of  timber  would  be  comparatively 
» light-  were  it  not  for  the  many  classes 
of  cateless  people  who  arc  a  menace 
to  the  forest.  These  various  types  are 
characterized  in  some  verses  written  by 
Mr.  %:T..,  Allen,  a  well  known  forester 
across  the  line.  Mr.  Allen  la  a  gradu- 
ate of  the  forest  service  organized  un- 
der the  guidance  of  Mr.  Glfford  I^n- 
rhot,'  and  Is  now  chief  forester  to  the 
Western  Forest  and  Conservation  as- 
sociation, which  makes  him  responsible 
for  the  safety  of  a  large  part  of  the 
timber  In  the  states  of  ■V\''aslilngton, 
Oregon.  Idaho,  Montana  and  Wyoming. 
The  verses  apply  Just  a*  much  on  this 
side  of  the  line  as  the  other,  and  Mr. 
Allen's  Indictment  Is  equally  effective 
Heic    ii     ..-.

wort  upon  the  other,  Is  conferred  for 
acts  of  gallantry  Involving  risk  of  life. 
The  fraternity  may  be  described  as  a 
Protestant  analogue  to  the  Rotnan 
Catholic  order  know  as  "The  Knights  of 
Molta."  but  the  two  are  ab.solutely  un-

Some  eastern  C.inadlan  lawyers  have 
come  back  from  London  Imbued  with 
thl-  idea  that  the  time  has  come  when 
Canada  should  have  a  representative 
on  the  Judicial  Committee  of  the  Privy 
Council,  bfft  they  overlook  the  fact 
that  the  Dominion  already  possesses 
such  a  represantatlve  In  I'ne  person  of 
Chief  .Tustlcc  Sir  Charles  Flupatrick. 
who  succeed ;()  the  late  Sir  Elzear 
Taschereau.  The  difficulty  is,  how- 
ever, thai  Sir  diaries  cannot  sit  in 
judmnent  upon  oases  in  which  he  has 
had  a  part  In  the  decision  by  liie  Su- 
preme crourt,  and  It  haa  so  far  been 
■found  impossible  to  devise  any  plan  by 
which  a  Canadian  Judge  could  occupy 
a.  seat  on  th,-  .ludiclal  Committee  With 
either  honor  to  himself  or  'Jighlty  to 
Canada. 


The  improvoments  which  have  been 
in  course  of  progress  for  several 
months  at  St.  Eugene's  hospital,  Cran- 
brook,  are  nearing  completion.  A  new 
wing  has  beefi  built,  four  storeys  In 
height  and  64  feet  long  by  37  feet  deep. 
Local  brick  has  been  used,  and  polished 
maole  of  home  manij'acture  In  the  in- 
terior. This  portion  of  the  hospital  can 
he  shut  off  from  the  old  portion  by 
fire-doors,  operating  automatically. 
There  are  several  auliea  of  private 
rooms,  one  of  which  has  been'  endowerl 
by  the  Kn^lghts  of  ("olumbus,  and  the 
operatiiiR,  sterilizing  and  doetors"  rooms 
are  thoroughly  appointed.  The  quarters 
for  tlie  nurses  arc  on  the  top  floor. 
Tlie  whole  of  the  sanitary  and  plumb- 
ing arrangements  are  of  the  most  mod- 
ern type,  and  the  ventilating  of  the 
wing  has  been  carefully  attended  to.  In 
the  old  part  of  the  hospital  there  has 
been  considerable  alteration,  auch  as 
the  enlargement  of  the  wards,  wider 
halls,  hardwood  floors  and  improved 
facilities  generally.

"wriU  Consider  Frotast— At  the  repu-

protest  of  tht  local  painters'  union  In

the  contnict  for  the  painting  of  th.? 
South  Park  school  to  Mr,  \V.  .1.  Bar- 
clay will  be  considered.  The  protest 
sets  forth  that  the  contract  was  lot  to 
an  American  who  had  been  In  the  city 
hut  a  short  time  and  also  criticizes  the 
iiiiallty  of  the  materials  being  used.  The 
board  let  the  contract  by  tender  in  the 
usual  manner,  and  of  tin;;  slven  bids 
that  of  ?.Tr.  Barclay's  was  the  lowest 
by  over  $500,  his  bid  having  been 
JL>,7nfi.50.  The  fact  that  Mr.  Barclay 
compiled  with  the  condition«  of  the  ad- 
vertisement calllnp  for  the  bids  and 
was  the  lowest  Is  .lUHtlfloatlon.  the

their  action.  As  to  the  charge  that  tho

Popular  Preacher — Last  Sunday  First 
Presbyterian  church  had  in  her  jpulplt 
one  of  the  most  popular  and  eloquent 
preachers  of  the  Presbyterian  church 
in  Canada,  a  cWurch  which  la  favored 
with  many  strong  and  eloquent  men, 
the  Rev.  W.  G.  Wilson,  M.A.,  late  of 
St.  Andrew's  church,  Quelph,  Ont.,  and 
now  of  St.  Andrew's  church.  Moose 
Jaw.  an  Influential  congregation  which 
has  &02  families  and  is  Just  now  erect- 
ing a  church  which  will  cost  $170,000. 
Mr.  Wilson  has  two  brothers  In  the 
ministry.  Rev.  R.  J.  Wilson,  of  Van- 
couver, and  Rev.  Dr.  Wilson,  of  Win- 
nipeg, both  energetic,  popular  and 
practical  men.  Mr.  Wilson  was  educated 
at  the  Unlver«lly  of  Toronto,  where  he 
secured  B.A.  and  M.A.,  and  at  the  Theo- 
logical hall  of  Knox  College,  Toronto. 
He  was  ordained  in  lfl03,  so  that  tie 
has  been  In  the  ministry  nine  years, 
and  is  now  of  considerable  experience, 
being  practically  at  h\»  best.  In  his 
pre.«<ontatlon  of  the  Truth  he  Is  plain, 
simple,  earnest  and  evangelical.  He 
seems  a  boy  In  the  pulpit,  but  he  is 
older  than  his  appearance  would  indi- 
cate, being  clean-shaved,  of  good  ad- 
dress and  has  an  excellent  voice.  He 
is  married  to  the  daughter  of  the  Hon. 
Andrew  Fraser,  lieutenant-governor  of 
Nova  Scotia,  a  lady  much  esteemed  for 
her  many  excellent  fiualltics  In  church 
and  social  circles.  Mr.  Wilson  la  again 
ni?xt  Sunday  to  occupy  the  pulpit  of 
First  Presbyterian  church,  and  the  con- 
gregation 1h  to  l>c  i-oiiK^'alulnted  If 
they  (jan  .secure  him  as  their  pastor  to 
succeed  the  Rev.  Dr.  Campbell,  who 
was  wltb  them  as  their  minister  for 
over  twenty  years,  and  who  rci-ently 
resljrncd    his    jmstorat*.

^  .  '*  '^^^  P^P*'  belonglnp  ot  Mr 
Robt.  Aleicander  from  a  new  house  on 
Pinewood  av«nue,  was  dismissed  in  the 
poilce  court  yesterday  morning.  Magis- 
trate Prior  said  hf  was  not  satisfied 
with  the  evidence,  which  was  most  con- 
tradictory, and  there  was  no  direct  evi- 
dence of  identification  of  the  plpe^or 
of  anyone  seeing  accused  take  the  pipe. 
The  accused  would  therefore  receive 
the  benefit  of  the  doubt.  The  evidence 
of  the  prosecution  was  that  Grlmshaw 
had  been  seen  on  the  street  with  a 
wagon  and  B2  feet  of  pipe  was  gone 
from  the  house.  The  accused  brought 
evidence  that  he  had  taken  20  feet  of 
pipe,  from  another  place  in  the  nolgh- 
borhtiod  and  denied  having  been  in  Pine- 
wood  avenue. 

Mnniclpal  Motor  Busses — .Mdermen 
Cuthbert,  I^orter  and  Cleason  were  ap- 
pointed by  the  city  council  last  evening 
to  secure  data  as  to  the  feasibility  of 
Inaugurating  a  inunlclpal  owned  system 
of  motor  busses  In  the  city  to  provide 
more  adequate  accommodation  for  pas- 
senger traffic  for  certain  sections  of  the 
city,  at  present  unserved  by  the  B.  <_". 
Electric  company's  lines.  Aldermfn 
9uthbert's  resolution  to  that  effect  was 
unanimously  carried,  he  urging  that,  the 
system  could  be  made  a  profitable  one 
and  one  in  which  private  capital  would 
be  ready  to  embark  should  the  city  bo 
willing  .to  grant  a  private  concern  the 
necessary  franchise.  But  he  saw  no 
reason  why  the  city  should  not  operate 
the  system.  Such  a  system  would  not 
necessarily  come  Into  competition  with 
t,,e   tramwtty   corrii»any. 

Beduos  Claim— In  satisfaction  of  his 
claim  against  the  city  for  »381,  his  fee 
for  attending  the  trial  of  the  action 
brought  by  Mr.  Thomas  Stedham 
against  the  city  in  connection  with  the 
Smith's  Hill  reservoir  repair  work,  for- 
mer City  Englneet'  Smith  will  be  of- 
fered ?100  .by  the  city.  Mr.  Smith 
claimed  $30  a  day.  In  addition  to  ex- 
penses, asserting  that  he  .was  called 
as  an  expert  witness  but  City  Solicitor 
Robertson,  In  a  communication  to  the 
city  council  last  evening,  pointed  out 
that  Mr.  Smith  had  attended  court  to 
give  evidence  if  required  and  then  only 
on  ciuestions  of  fact  and  not  as  an  ex- 
pert witness.  In  view  of  the  fact  that 
Colonel  Tracer  of  Vancouver,  also  call- 
ed as  a  witness  for  the  city,  had 
charged  $150  the  council  decided  that 
certainly  Mr.  Smith  wajs  not  entitled 
to  more.  The  $100  eettlement  was  fi- 
nally approved  of.  If  this  is  not  sat- 
isfactory to  the  city's  former  engineer 
he  will  be  entitled  to  sue  for  what  he 
thinks    is   his   due. 

Seek  Changs  In  Stands — .Acting  on  be- 
half of  soma  forty  owners  of  express 
vehicles  plying  for  hire  In  the  city,  Mr. 
H.  Austin,  of  Messrs.  Aikman  &  Austin, 
solicitors.  appeared  before  the  city 
council  last  evening  and  urged  that  the 
provisions  of  the  recently  passed  b.'s'law 
fixing  the  locations  in  which  the  vehicles 
may  stand,  bo  changed.  The  bylaw 
fixes  Yate."!  street,  west  of  Waddlngton 
alley,  and  Flsguard  and  Herald  streot-S. 
west  of  Government  street,  as  the  new 
stands,  the  old  stand  on  Yates  street, 
east  of  Douglas  street,  having  been 
abolished.  Mr.  Austin  asked  that  Yates 
street,  west  of  Blanchard  street,  be 
named  a  stand  as  to  force  the  express- 
men to  stand  on  I  Isguard  or  Herald 
streets,  simply  placed  them  in  a  sec- 
tion where  no  business  can  be  secured 
and  away  from  that  section  requiring  a. 
service.  The  merchants  on  Yates  street, 
west  of  Waddlngton  alley,  have  com- 
plained of  wagons  standing  tliere  be- 
cause of  Interference  to  their  businesses. 
Mr.  Austin's  plea,  back'-d  up  by  thaj,  of 
an  owner  of  an  express  wagon,  was 
summarily  disposed  of  by  simply  filing 
the  accompanying  petition  .•"Igned  by  a 
number  of  the  owners  of  express  and 
dray    vehicles.

is  to  keep  your  fire  ahvays  steady 
and  even.  It's  the  fire  that  burns 
red  hot  one  minute  and  out  the 
next  that  makes  big  coal  bills. 

This   is   the   fire  that  spoils 
your  cooking  too and  fills  the  day  with  petty  annoyances.

A  Clean  City  ' 

I-'^om   a   woman '.«:    I'l!"'    of   View,    the 
ne.ws   that  sewer  likely   to  be 

discontinued  Is  very  mt^nulctinK.  We 
all  know  that  we  cannot  get  what  we 
'miv^  n<it  nii'ney  to  pay  for.  But  a 
.-icw  crafre  3.\st.cni  In  every  part  of  tho 
city  is  a  necessity.  No  other  public 
xvork.  except  the  waterworks,  compares 
with  this  In  importance.  Sidewalks  and 
boulevards  are  great  conveniences,  hut 
residents  on  a  street  may  be  healthy 
\vithi>ut  them,  'We  like  to  have  our 
•■■iipots  well  lighted,  but  no  one  •will 
contend  that  cluster  lights  are  needed 
as  much  as  sewerage.  If  the  appropri- 
ation for  the  new  sewer  system  Is  ex- 
hausted, let  us  by  all  means  find  out 
what  has  been  done  with  the  money 
and   If   there  ha««   been   ex"  ice  or 

waste,    pi'nlsh   the    guilty  But 

f  very  taxpay>?r  in  A'lctorla  who  has  ex- 
perienced, in  the  past,  the  benefits  of 
our  excellent  sewer  system,  will  he  wil- 
ling to.  pay  whatever  is  •--'-?  to  ex- 
tend Its  benefits  to  tho  ts  in 
tho  nowpr  parts  of  the  city.  As  for 
the  newcomerft.  there  can  be  no  doubt 
that  they  will  be  ready,  if  need  he,  to 
make  sacrifices  In  order  that  they  may 
be  relieved  from  th'e  anxiety  that  al- 
ways Attends  a  defective  sanitary  sys- 
tem. Surely  if  tUlH  is  the  ca«e  some 
means  can  be  found  hy  the  council  of 
raising  the  money .  necessary  to  go  on 
with  the  work.  An  eptdf^mic  of  typhoid 
or  scarlet  fever  would  cost  the  city 
many    times    ten    thousand    dollars. 


City   Oardens 
The   people  of   the  city  of  Minneapolis 
wore   encouraged   last   year   to   cuUlvnto 
vacant    lots.      Tho    land    was    ?!ven    free 
r.nd  s.-'eds  wjTp  furtilshed.  All   that  was 
asked  for  was  labor.    Uast  year  citizens 
iDiiKratulated    themselyee   on      the     im- 
proved appearance  of  the  siceets.     7hl.s 
year    the   co.st    of    living    in    Mlnneiipolis 
luis  been   lowered   In  a   very   appreciable 
lUpr'-f.      J>o    in;my    of    the    citizens    liavs 
mlKcd    their   own    vegetables    and   small 
fruits    that  the   market  price   has   Knn'> 
ilown.     Is  there  not  hero  a  hint  for  Hi" 
people    of    Victoria    who    find       it      v^ry 
lard  to  meet   their  household   expenscH, 
it    will    not    cost    a    man   or    woman    in 
Victoria  any   more    to  cuUlvate   a   vege- 
table   garacmn    .-,pare    hoiir«       than      it 
does    in    MInncftpollH,    for    nowhere    are 
copdltiims  more  lavoraMe  for  gardpning 
than  h.-re.  as  the  soil  is  fertile  and  the 
fllmate    Koiiil.      On    the    other    hand,  the 
price  of  Harden   stuff  as  hlRh.     One  has 
only    to    go    tlirouRli    the   stroets    to   see

their     own     tables     with     summer    veg:?- 
tablcs    th«ii    do   so   at   prnsent.      The  re- 
sult   would    be   a    great    Improvemrnt    in 
health    as    wll    as    a    saving    of    money. 


Iriv/how  w 

-_-       _  p^ion.        A' 

writes: 

"I  have  a  daughter,  colleg«>  educated, 
efficient,  teacher  of  .  clvios,  knowing 
more  than  I  do  about  such  things. 
She  wants  to  vote,  and  would  vote  if 
the  lew  allowe<l  her  to.  and  why 
shouldn't  she  vote,  if  this  is  a  dem- 
ocrax-y7  1  understand  that  you  admit 
that  you  should  not  object  to  her  hav- 
ing that  rlRht.  But  why  do  you  say 
tl]a.i  ifn  should  have  tho 

cbanc;,  1-  -.1,  -  I-  he  cannot  have  the 
ballot?  Is  It -necessary  to  keep  A  In 
slavery  because  B,  another  slave,  does 
not  want  her  freedom? 

Again,  you  gentlemen  fall  to  see  the 
truth.  You  think  this  would  be  adding 
another  load  to  her  burden.  Alas,  wo- 
man has  always  carried  more  than  her 
^■v.ivo.  From  the  time  when  the  old 
Shunamlte  said,  "take  the  boy  to  his 
mother,"'  woman  has  borne  the  burden. 
She  aces  her  babies  killed  by  tainted 
milk;  she  sees  her  sisters  driven  into 
prostitution;  she  sees  her  daui^hters 
burned  In  unprotec-ted  workshops:  she 
sees  little  children  and  weak  women 
crowded  into  tinventllated  sweatshops; 
she  sees  wars  waallnr  the  lands  and 
her  sons'  mangled  bodies— and  all  this 
is  the  load,  and  only  a  part  of  the  load 
that  she  carries,  and  you  and  the  colonel 
are  against  her  having  a  blade  that 
she  can  fight Witlr,  because  she  has 
sisters  too  cowardly  or  too  ignorant  to 
flKht   for   theniselves." 

.\  New  Tork  woman  reaches  this  con- 
clusion: 

•'Men  do  not  want  to  impose  s«ffra8;2 
on  women,  and  may  they  never  mistake 
the  clamor  of  the  suffragist  for  the 
voice  of  the  women  of  our  country. 
The  assertion  recently  made  by  the 
Knglish  lecturer,  that  women  of  our 
country  who  do  not  want  to  vote  ore 
represented  by  the  vaiild  women  who 
advertise  silly  fashions,  is  no  more 
true  than  that  the  Kn^llsh  women  who 
throw  brickbats  and  strike  mm  nr<- 
typlcal  Kngllsh  women. 

"There  is  Just  so  much  .heat  force, 
nerve  force,  life  force  In  every  "woman. 
It  used  in  one  way,  it  cannot  be  used 
In  another.  Where  will  our  women  he 
force?l  to  put  heir  best  powers?  Ida 
M.  Tarbell,  one  of  tW-ihleat  women  of 
our  day.  and  a  waKe-earning  womji.n. 
has  well  Hsld:  'The  woman  In  Industry 
Is,  after  all.  a  transient.'  A  tix^lnlng 
that  win  lead  her  to  apply  her  powers 
will)  appreciation  and  enthu.slnsm  to  do- 
rneailc  and  not  to  polltlciil  life  Is  what 
she  needs.  She  must  not  prove  her 
euuallty  by  doing  In  his  wwy  the  thlnss 
that  man  does,  but  by  doing  the  thlnRs 
for  which  she  is  fitted  and  whk-.h  the 
world  neds  from  her.  'Life  l.i  not  ftaved 
hy  ipolitlcs,    but  by   principle.' 

••May  the  women  of  this  land  who 
are  striving  frantically  for  their  so- 
called  Tlglits,"  and  endeavoring  to  Im^ 
pose  them  on  countless  women  who  re- 
ject them,  stop  and  think  whether  the 
power  they  seek  so  <-ag.--rly  will  not.  de- 
stroy  Insteaxl  of  save  them." 

It  Is  only  right  to  say  that  there  are 
f.-w  of  the  writers  who  have  any  such 
tnls>rlvlnKS.  The  general  belief  is  that 
the  possession  of  the  fmnchise  by  the 
women  of  the.  United  Ktates  would  be 
good  for  them  and  for  the  nation. 
Whatever  may  bo  the  immediate  result, 
the  discussion  will  ten-l  to  awaken  the 
Interest  of  all  intelligent  mfn  and 
women.

mers, jumpe<l  Into  the  river  at  a  point 
where  it*  was  fifteen  feet  de»>p  and 
rescued  Miss  May  .Pennock,  who  had 
fallen  into  the  river.  Mls.i  TurklnKton 
was  a  Kooil  swimmer.  It  is  (|ulte  n^ 
important  that  a  girl  should  be  aitalo 
to  swim  as  b  boy.  While  In  case  of 
accident,  wihcn  a  man  is  present  he  is 
expected  to  make  every  effort  to  save 
his  companions,  and  to  s.icriflcc  his 
own  life,  if  necesary.  there  Is  no  reason 
why  a  woman  should  be  helpless.  In 
our  Own  waterit  a  woman  has  more  thsn 
once  shown  the  value  of  haVing  learned 
the  art  of  swimming,  by  saving  the 
life'  of  her  companiop."  In  every  sea-

DeafnsBB   Cannot   bs   Cured 

By  local  applications,  as  they  cannot 
reach  the  diseased  portion  of  the  ear. 
There  Is  only  one  way  to  cure  deaf- 
tiess,  awl  thfit  Is  by  constitutional 
remedies.  Deafness  Is  caused  by  an 
Inflamed  condition  of  the  mucous  lin- 
ing of  the  Eustachian  Tub«^.  When 
this  tube  is  inflamed  you  have  a  rumb- 
ling sound  or  imperfect  hearing,  and 
when  it  Is  entirely  closed.  Deafness  is 
the  result,  and  unless  tho  Inflamma- 
tion can  "J';  taken  out  and  this  tube 
restored  to  Its  normal  condition,  hwir- 
log  will  be  destroyed* forever,  nine 
cases  out  of  ten  are  caiSed  by  Catarrh, 
which  is  nothing  but  an  inflamed  con- 
dition  of   the   mucous  surfaces. 

We    will    give    One    Hundred    Dollars 

for   any    case,  of    Deafness    (caused    by 

catarrh    that  Annot  be  cured  by  Hall's

necessary  bunt,  and  B roolW^tHimai'- IWeMtlg 
Yolie.  That  was  all  the  run-getllng  for  & 
period  In  the  second  two  hits  and  a 
double  steal  were  Insufficient  to  make  the 
bell  ring.  Clementson  singled,  and  after 
Keller  fanned,  Kennedy  got  a  hit,  .lod  both 
worked  a  double  steal  while  Smith  was 
hitting  wildly  at  the  atmosphere.  Yohe 
failed    to   bring   them   home,    though. 

In  the  visitors'  third  the  Bees  treated  the 
electorate  to  some  fancy  fielding.  "VVlih 
I>alonge  on.  Ten  Million  hit  to  Smith,  who 
threw  to  RawUngs,  who  tagged  Lalonge  and 
pegged  .to  Brooks  In  time  to  catch  Million 
also.  In  the  fourth  McMuUin  was  fanned 
with  Lynch  on  third.  Another  Inning  bad 
for  the  heart  was  the  fifth,  when  Million 
struck   out  with   two   on. 

The  Bees  nearly  dlil  It  In  the  fifth.  Yohe 
hit.  and  Kauftman,  running  tor  him,  went 
to  second-  on  a  pa.ssed  ball,  and  after  Raw- 
Ungs f  Jew  out.  Brooks'  out  at  first  sent 
him  to  third.  Then  Meek  was  purposely 
walked  and  "Weed  drove  a  long  fly  to  left, 
but  Million  got  his  digits  tight  on  It — and 
the    bell    did    not    toll. 

Smiths  overthrow  over  first  was  the  main 
factor  In  giving  the  Tigers  a  couple  In  the 
sixth.  Goodman  hit,  Neighbors  bunted  and 
^5mlth  pegged  wild,  letting  the  runners  to 
second  and  third.  I..ynch  hit  to  Yohei  who 
hold  Goodman  on  third  while  he  pegged 
Michael  out  at  first,  and  McMulIln  hit  to 
Rawllngs,  who  flagged  Goodman  «t  the 
plate.  Then  Holdeman  hit  to  centre  and 
Clementson  didn't  get  to  It  fast  enoush. 
Hestilt.    two    runs. 

,  In  the  seventh  Million's  fast  work  on 
the  bases  gave  Tacoma  the  third.  He  bit 
and  stole  and  scored  from  second  oh  Neigh- 
bors'   flil    t*  Weed. 

The  BecB  took  ttielr  second  run  in  the 
seventh.  •  Yohe  hit  through  Million  and 
reached  third  before  Ten  got  the  pill  back. 
lie  forgot  that  he  had  a  flat  wheel  and 
travelled.  He  scored  on  Brooks'  '  out  at 
.  first.. 

In  the'  eighth  Lynch  robbed.  Clementson 
of  a  hit  by  a  fine  one-hand  running  catch 
with  Weed  on  and  almost  doubled  him  at 
first.  In  the  ninth  the  Tigers  fell  on  Smith 
and  mauled  his  offerings.  After  I,alonge 
.was  laid  away  Mali  hit  the  ball  over  the 
fence.  Million  took  a  two-sacker,  and 
Etter  Goodman  was  put  away.  Neighbors  got 
a  walk.  With  the  two  on  Lynch  poled  the 
pill  over  the  palings,  and  four  were  added 
because  of  these  things,  making  the  total 
s«v*h.

SAN  FRANCISCO.  August-  12.— Two 
important  tennis  tournaments  remain 
to  be  contested  before  the  annual  na- 
tional championship  tourney  at  Netv- 
port  this  month— the  New  York  state 
title  and  the  Southampton:  tourney; 
Maurice  E.  McJLoughlin  appears  to  be 
invincible,  and  it  would  be  hard  to  con- 
vince any  one  here  that  he  will  not 
return  with  the.  national  championship. 

It  is  not  likely  that  McLrOuphlin  will 
play  in  the  Southampton  Rveni.  He 
has  been  on  the  coiirta  In  the  east 
every  day  for  the  past  itMnth.  Mc- 
liOughlin  has  had  a  lot  of  experience. 
He  has  been  going  east  for  four  sea-' 
sons.  The  only  thing  to  be  'feared  is- 
that  he  might  have  an  off  day  against 
o.ne  of  the  first-class  men.  There  Is 
alwftys  that  danger  when  a  player  uses 
the  speed  that  IvIcLiOughlln  does.

Scott  and  his  reflntie  will  reach  here 
Friday  anJ  lake  up  quarters  at  one  of  the 
local  athletic  clnlis.  His  reputation  as  an 
athl'>te  Is  conaidorahle.  Two  years  ago

In  Seattle,  he  won  the  I^lppy  mednl  for  all- 
round  Hnperlorlty  In  all  open  events.  He  Is 
considered  the  likeliest  product  of  the  llghl-

was  considered  world's  championship  tim-

he  will  win  'from  Bayley.'  There  may  he  a 
little  friction  over  the  selection  of  a  referee,

Injr  home  are  all  advertising  ti 
pixjvince;  and  the  wise  policy  of  the 
provincial  government  In  determining 
to  erect  a  purely  British  Columbia 
building  on  thvi  Kingsway  cannot  but 
add  to  the  advertisement  of  British  Co- 
lumbia. 

"In  this  connection.  I  was  delighted 
to  see  how  popular  and  well  known 
Sir  Richard  McBride  Is  in  the  em- 
pire's capital.  He  is  almost  as  well 
known  there  as  he  is  tn  Victoria,  and 
the  news  of  his  knighthood  was  re- 
ceived with  delight,  not  only  by  the 
British  Columbia  colony  (who  held  a 
celebration  of  their  own)  but  also  by 
many  people  prominent  in  the  political 
and  social  life  of  England,  who  regard 
our  premier  as  op©  of  the  leading 
statesmen   of  the   empire." 

Tariff    Bafoim    Making    Progreaa 

Mr.  Barnard  i.s  of  the  opinion  that 
the  tariff  reform  movement  is  making 
steady  progress  in  England.  E.ipecially 
is  this  the  case  In  the  Jsorth  where  the 
Unionists  have  been  holding  a  series 
of  open  air  meetings  four  nights  a 
week  in  the  various  industrial  centres 
with  the  view  of  converting  the  work- 
ing  classes. 

"Mr.  Grat tan  Doyle,  the  organiser  of 
these  meetings,  assured  me  that  they 
were  having  great  effect  and  convert- 
ing many  who  hat!  previously  been  op- 
posed, to  the  idea  of  tariff  reform. 
Certainly  iio  one  could  have  wished  for 
a  more  successful  meeting  than  the  one 
at  Newcastle  which  I  had  the  honor 
to  address.  There  were  fully  4,000  peo- 
ple present,  and  we  successfully  held 
the  close  attention  of  the  audience,  who 
■had  not  even  the  convenience  of  seats, 
for   two   hours  and  a   half." 

Indeed,  on  the  whole,  Mr.  T?arnnr(1  Is 
of  opinion  that  the  tide  Is  running  very 
strongly  against  the  Asqulth  govern- 
ment. "The  Insurance  act,  with  all  Ita 
Irritation  and  Its  stamp  sticking.  Is 
much  more  effective  as  against  the 
Liberal  government  than  even  the  Irish 
home  dule  or  Welsh  disestablishment. 
This  is  a  question  which  comes  home 
to  every  household,  and  it  Is  having 
wonderful   effect." 

Mr.    Monk    Takaa    a    National    View 

As  previously  announced,  Mr.  Bar- 
nard-spent  several  days  In  Ottawa  look- 
ing after  the  Interests  of  his  corvstltu- 
ents  and  he  brings  word  that  Hon.  F. 
D.  Monk,  the  minister  of  public  works, 
is  quite  alive  to  the- Importance  of  the 
development  of  the  ports  on  the  Pacific 
coast.  The  minister  had  Intended  to 
have  visited  British  Columbia  this 
summer,  but  hia  tour  of  Inspection  of 
the  lake  ports  took  longer  than  he  had 
anticipated,  and  so  he  ha.<?  had  to  po.st- 
pone  his  visit  until  October.  He  would 
have  liked  to  have  come  west  at  once, 
but  11  was  necessary  for  him  to  remain 
In  Ottawa  to  meet  the  premier  and 
the  other  ministers  who  have  been  to 
England,  and  consequently  he  will  not 
arrive  until  the  autumn.  "But,"  said 
Mr.  Barnard,  "the  minister  of  public 
works  gave  me  a  definite  promise  that 
tender.s  would  be  at  once  called  for  the 
new  breakwater,  and  that  the  Improve- 
ments to  the  post  office  would  be  pu<t 
under  way  as  rapldl.v  as  possible,  and 
I  exei)ct,  the  Instructions  to  District 
Engineer  Worsfold  to  reach  Victoria 
tomorrow, 'If  they  did  not  come  on  the 
same  train  as  I  did." 

Mr.  Barnard  says  that  Hon.  Martin 
Burrell,  the  minister  of  agriculture,  the 
representative  of  Biltish  Columbia  In 
the  cabinet,  is  doing  first-class  work 
In  Ottawa.  He  Is  very  pcpT^lar.  and 
is  well  spoken  of  by  the  press  on  both 
sides  of  politics  for  the  very  evident 
earnes'ness  he  1."  putting  Into  his  work

Breach  of   Treaty 

The  Britl'in  government,  according 
to  iidvicos  today  from  the  state  de^ 
partment  has  mad©  representation  re- 
garding the  propositions  to  allow  Am- 
erican vessels  to  use  the  canal  free  of 
tolls,  since  the  note  through  Mr.  Innes 
on  July  8  last.  It  Is  now  awaiting,  it 
Is  raid,  the  enactment  of  the  legisla- 
tion and  the  adoption  of  regulations  to 
put  into  effect  In  order  to  have  a  euf- 
rtclent  basis  for  a  more  formal  protest 
against  vi'hat  It  regards  as  a  clear 
breach    of    the    existing    treaty. 

In  recognition  of  the  superior  right 
of  Great  Britain  to  address  the  United 
States  government  on  this  suhject  in 
virtue  of  tlfe  existence  of  the  Hny- 
Pauncefete  treaty,  other  European  na- 
tions and  even  ila/pan  have  refrained 
from  approaching  the  state  department 
notwithstanding  their  interest  equal  to 
that  of  Great  Britain  by  reason  of  their 
right  to  claim  equal  treatment  »for 
their  shipping  under  the  favored  nation 
clriuse  Omciftls  of  this  government, 
however,  are  said  to  expect  that  boon 
after  the  signing  of  the  act  by  the 
president,  their  charge  will  be  directed 
to  submit  to  the  state  department  a 
formal  protest  in  behalf  of  this  gov- 
ernment agalnat  what  It  regards  as  dls-

they  had  received  it  as  their  share  of

notoriety  of  the  whole  affair  placed

that  the  address  given  by  Walters  was

was  a  noted  dive,  frequented  by  pick- 
pockets, thieves  and  confidence  men. 
Last  night,  Acting  Inspector  of  Detec-

this  view  must  become  more  of  a  pro- 
blem in  the  future,  because  hundreds 
of  thousands  of  immigrants  came  to 
the  west  knowing  nothing  of  older 
Canada.  Transportation  matters  he 
also  touched  on,  and,  dealing  vs'lth  the 
recent  action  of  the  United  States  sen- 
ate on  the  Panama  Canal  question,  he 
said: 

"I  do  not  believe  In  the  present  age 
any  nation  can  Ignore  the  plain  lan- 
giiage  of  an  international  treaty.  Fur- 
thermore, 1  believe  that  such  a  moral 
pressure  will  be  brought  to  bear  on 
congress  that  the  Hay-Pauncefote 
treaty  will  be  recognized.  If  it  had 
not  been  for  territorial  concessions  by 
.Britain,  the  United  States  could  not 
have  built  the  canal." 

Referring. to  educational  matters,  Mr. 
Willlson  said  that  the  University  6f 
British  Columbia  should  be  of  singular 
lntere«it  and  singular  achievements, 
and  he  also  advocated  the  exchange  of 
professors  and   senior  students. 

Hon.  W.  J.  Hanna,  provincial  secre- 
tary of  Ontario,  delivered  a  humorous 
address,  in  which  he  championed  the 
cause  of  Ontario  and  claimed  that  the 
opportunities  to  be  found  in  the  older 
provinces  were  equal  to  those  of  the 
west.

Outfielder  Speas.  of  rortlnnrt.  has  been 
sold  by  .Manager  .N'Ick  Williams  Io  the  fit, 
Louis  Nationals  for  VJ.60».  He  will  go  to 
.St.  Louis  at  the  close  of  the  Northwest 
season.  The  deal  tor  Speas  was  made  hy 
Richard  KInaella,  srout  for  ItiiT  St.  Louis 
nlub.  The  St.  I,ouls  scout  has  seen  Hpeas 
play  b'jt  one  game,  still  knows  his  record 
well,  and  considers  him  the  best  looking 
outfielder  wbn  bats  right  handed  In  the 
league.  In  spite  of  the  fact  that  Sp<*ab  has 
been  up  In  the  big  brush  once,  coming  from 
Cleveland  hero  In  11)09,  he  Is  but  24  years 
of  age,  and  the  experience  he  has  gained 
since  his  four-year  stay  on  the  coast  has 
been  of  great  benefit  to  him.  Speas  played 
on  the  Beavers  In  1901*  and  iSlOt  working 
In  the  Northwestern  outfield  for  the  Inst 
itwo  seasons.  •  Although  he  has  been  in.iurcd 
a  number  of  times,  he  has  been  going  like 
a,  house  nflre  this  season,  and  stands  a 
good   chance  of  sticking.

Mr,  Hfggtns  concluded,  a  commission 
form  of  government  was  dci£lraJl1e,  the 
commissioners  to  be  appointed  by  the 
provincial  government  and  to  be  r  Mov- 
able by  a  rpcail  vote.  He  considered 
that  the  provincial  government  would 
.select  better  men  than  could  be  secured 
by  ■ «  popular  vote,  and  the  argument 
that  a  political  macliine  might  be  built 
up  wa^  dlisposed  of  by  the  power  of  re- 
cnll.ln  the  h&nds  of  the  people.  Thi« 
would  be  exercised  on  petition  by  one- 
fourth  of  the  property-owners  and  if 
In  a  vote  by  property  owners.'  license 
holders  and  householder*  a  commls- 
.sioner  met  an  adverse  majority  vote 
he  should  'be  forthwith  removed  from 
office  by  the  government.  In  the  event 
of  a  favorable  vote  no  other  vote  for 
the  removal  of  a  commissioner  should 
be  held   for   1-    months. 

Of,  the  three  commls.^loners  onr-

the  city  solicitor  had  said  as  to  ivu^b-

C.  Telephone  compan.\,  and  t'raisflowor 
road,  by  tho  Ksguimalt  Wai<>i- works

said,  the  company  has  known  for  a 
twelvemonth  that  the  streets  were  to 
be  puved  and  ivad  ample  time  to  do  any

Bletitrio  was  that  of  thp  strinviiMr  «t 
hi«h  tension  wires  through  th«  city 
streets.  Aid,  Olsason  maintained  .that 
Victoria  should  have  the  power  to  com- 
pel the  oompany  to  place  "cradle*"  tin- 
der these  wires.  Vancouver  had  this 
pow»r  and  exercised  It.  The  dty  elec- 
trician. Mr.  Hutchison,  had  fretiuently 
reported  on  the  menace  the  high  ten- 
sion wires  bringing  power  <rom  Jordan 
river  wore  to  life  and  property. 


-  Alderman  Oieason  urged  that  police 
and  license  boards  sh<mld  be  elected  by 
the  people,  and  said  that  the  people  by 
a  large  majority  ha<^  decided  in  a  refer-

ent  these  bodies  Ware '  appointed  and

DOpttkar  vote. 

Mr,  Maclean  reminded  him  that  on 
both  the  boards  mentioned  the  mayor 
and  one  alderman  were  members,  the 
majority  being  thus  men  elected  by  the 
p^ple  and    responsible  to  them. 

Alderman  Gleason  replied  that  Sit  «p«

gelher  superfluous.  This  wajs  the 
weakness  of  tlie  board  of  control  sys- 
tem. The  alderman  diclarcd  himself 
absolutely  in  favor  of  tlio  commission 
form  of  governmenc,  ,and  said  it  was 
possible  or  a  whole,  council  now  to  be 
new  men,  without  ,'cxperlerice  at  all. 
The  position  was  poorly  paid  and 
councils  did  not  ba.ve  the  direct  and 
undivided  responslliLllty  they  should 
have.  Three  commlsrtloners,  men  of 
high  repute,  one  wIm)  could  direct  pub- 
lic wvarks  and  one  used  to  financial  de- 
tails, under  heavy  bonds  and  subject  to 
recall,  would  give  a  city  good  service, 
MuniclpttHtles  he  wxjuld  like  to  wee 
divided  into  three  claAses,  with  larger 
powcr.s  given  to  cities  of^he  tlrst  class. 

yiv.  Maclean  asked  how  this  system 
was  going  to  ensure,  the  election  of  ex- 
"jtlirta.  According  to  the  ..argument  the

^yyiiltiii'lhotor  car  AXhibitB  ever  brought

that  the  cars  asecmbUd  here  rep res»»nt 
an  outlay  of  over  IIOO.OCO.  and  anyone 
who  takes  the  trouble  to  think  will 
agree  that  t!iH  is  a  striking  manlf^Mita- 
t:on  of  the  great  material  progrss.t  of 
Vancouver  and    British   Columbia; 

"The  display  of  livestock  Is  also  a 
splendid  encomium  upon  the  progress 
made  In  the  ogricultural  I'istrlcts,  while 
the  machinery  exhibit  offers  evidence, 
■  that  must  be  especially  gratifying,  of 
the  wonderfiil  advance  that  has  been 
niade  from  an  Industrial  point  o^  view. 
"Vancouver's  exhibition  may  be  said 
to  reflect  'the  pulse  of  the  ■-•ommerclal 
metropolis  of  the  province.  You  have 
a  eft  of  which  the  empire  may  well 
be  proud,  and  the  advances  that  have 
b€fn  made  at  the  fat;  rgrounds  cl'^arly 
bespeak  the  progress  of  the  city  and  in 
H  '  de«rpp  of  the  province  as  ,  a  whole. 
The  fi'ture  Is  a  most  hopeful  one.  With 
the  rallwav  devrlopment.  rich,  tracts  of 
coimtry  tributary  to  Vancouver  will  be 
opened  up,  and  this,  with  the  opening 
'of  the  Panaaia  canal,  will  mean  the 
even  more  rapid  progress  of  this  city 
in  the  futur?  than  has  been  Its  fortune 
In  the  past.  I  am  sure  that  we  all  Owe

jCorbett  Accuses  Champion  of 
Fear  in  His  Refusal  to  Fight 
McVey,  Langford  or  Jeanette 
— Ring  Gossip 


What  crates  on  my  nerves  more  than 
anything  el«e  t»  the  liberty  of  speech 
llila  feUow  Is  perinltted,  and  that  I.e 
KC'is  away  with.  Tliere  surely  never 
waM  a  i-liamplon  befpre  wiio  coul<l  make 
llie  breaks  Johiisoa  iloes  and  not  bp 
Mfverely  L-i'nsured.  He  was  reocnlly 
ciuoied  as  sayinjj  "he  can  get  120,000 
liurKfs  for  lioxinK  nuclcers."  And  llie 
nerve  In  asklns  Gibson  to  match  him 
with  Al  Palzer,  a  mere  novice,  after 
turning:  down  the  proposition  lo^)Ox- 
JeaniuHte.  If  that  Is  not  the  extrVma 
llinlt  for  Kail  tli<>n  I  throw  up  bott. 
liands. 

When  Sam  i.angford  whipped  Sam 
McVey  for  the  second  time  within  six 
months,  he  put  that  gentleman  out  of 
the  running:  for  the  championship 
stakes,  and  established  his  own  right 
to  argue  the.  que.«itlon  of  nuperiority 
witl.  Joe  .(eannette  or  any  other  boxer 
who  may  have  dewlgiis  on  the  title  to 
which  Johnson  1."  supposed  to  have 
relinquished   all   claim. 

Dan  McKettrlck  has  already  filed  for 
ir.f  Jeannette.  He  bases  his  claim  on 
ihc  fact  that  It  was  Jeannette  who 
made  JohnBon  take  it  on  the  run.  How- 
ever, Dan  is  a  trifle  prenrature.  A 
title  Is  not  a  thing  for  anyone  to  pick 
up  and  claim.  It  must  be  fought  for 
and  won  honestly.  At  the  present  time 
there  Is  little  doubt  that  Jeannette  and 

others.   'jMK'lBie    ^  n>iie^^^|paipi|^''tliil*

Manager    Gibson,    of    the    Garden    Ath-

apiit    signature    to    paper    calling    for    a

ivhom  he   has   steadily  dodged  since  the 
i  occasion    of    their    last    meeting    about

experioaeed    no    change    in    .stntiment   so

than  Jeannette  by  fdr  and  would  be 
the  favorite  In  a  short  bout,  but  In  a 
longer  struggle  the  betting  would  be 
ajbout  even.  Jeannette  is  a  bear  for 
taking  punishment  and  has  the  stamina 
of  half  a  doaen  ordinary  fighters. 
Langford  might  outpoint  him  all  the

Attell,  If  Ife  t^kes  care  of  him.«elf,

Gunboat  Bmith,  the  western  beavy- 
welghl.  Jim  Buckley  brought  to  New 
York  and  who  was  outpointed  by  big 
Jim  Stewart  several  months  agor-  has 
been  sailing  along  in  great  siyla  late- 
ly. 'J'he  Gunboat  has  seored  five 
straight  "wins"  and  is  showing  ma- 
terial Improvenienl  over  the  form  lie 
dl.spluyed     in     the    Stewart     engagement. 

fiiiith  knocked  out  Andy  Morris  in 
two  rounds  the  other  night.  Not  that 
Morris  was  ever  a  marvel,  but  it  goes 
to  show  liow  fast  Gunboat  is  moving 
these  days.  I  suw  Murils  give  Ste- 
wart a  beating  over  a  I  the  Royale  club 
in  Brooklyn  la.st  winter,  and  1  was 
present  when  Stewart  scoied  his  de- 
cision over  the  Gunboat.  It  was  Ste- 
wart's bulk  that  won  for  him  then,  and 
at  that  1  doubt  if  Smith  was  In  the 
very    be.st   shape   at    the    time. 

From  the  way  he  has  been  boxing 
lately  I  would  say  that  Gunboat  would 
give  any  of  the  white  heavies  an  argu- 
ment. While  weighing  'only  in  tlie 
neighborhood  of  180  pounds, '  which  In 
view  of  the  size  of  the  majority  of  the 
title  hunters  is  considerable  handUap, 
he  can  boost  of  a  wallop  that  Is  a 
corker.  He  shook  Stewart  to  his  heels

SKAGWAY,  Alaska,  Aug.  12.— The 
discovery  of  a  new  paj<«  llirough  the 
Alaska  range,  the  exploration  of  6<t 
miles  of  country  wtvUh  has  been  a 
blank  on  the  map  and  the  verltlcation 
of  the  a.ssertlon  that  the  ascent  of  Mt. 
McKinley  can  be  made  along  the  north- 
erstern  ridge  were  aecomplislied  by  the 
Tarker-Browne  Mount  McKinley  expe- 
dition, which  arrived  here  on  Friday 
night  on  the  way  home  from  the  inovm- 
taiii. 

Tlie  expedition,  headed  by  Trnf.  Jler.s- 
chel  Parker  of  .N'ew  York,  and  Belmore 
Browne  of  Tacoma,  left  Seward  on 
I''cbruary  20  with  ten  dogB,  traveling 
40U  miles  over  a  rougli  country  to  the 
northeast  ridge  of  the  mountain  where 
the  ascent  of  the  south  peak  was  be- 
gun. An  altitude  of  20,000  feet  wns 
reached    by    the   cllmberK. 

"The  most  difficult  part  of  the  climb 
was  in  the  zone  between  the  12,000- 
foot  and  the  IT.noo-foot  altitude.'i."  said 
Mr.  Brown  today.  "Above  the  17.000

Congestion 


OTTAWA,  Aug.  12. — During  an  ab- 
sence of  26  days,  during  which  time 
thifty  travereed  a  total  of  6,000  miles, 
railway  commissioners  8oott  and  Good- 
eve  returned  to  Ottawa  on  Friday  from 
their  tour  of  the  western  provinces. 
Dr.  MlUa,  the  third  ocmmlssloner  of 
the  party  is  still  at  Vancouver,  having 
decided  to  take  £>.  vacation  before  the 
board  ails,  In   this  city  September   17. 

At  ten  sittings  of  the  board  held  dur- 
ing their  trip.  130  oppUcatlons  were 
presented  and  in  all  but  11  of  312  cases 
heard,  judgments  were  handed  down. 
During  thii  tour  the  commissioners  had 
the  opJ^ortun«ty  of  hearing  a  great  deal 
of  evidence  regarding  the  weBtern 
freight  rates,  information  which  will 
doubtless  have  a  bearing  on  the  final 
Judgment   in   the  cases   being  reviewed. 

The  chief  commissioner,  Mr.  ScOtt, 
when  seen  this  morning  was  moat  en- 
thu.-'tasttc  about  the  crop  conditions 
throughout    the   west.      He    was    rather

Testerday  Morning 

The  steamer  Prince  George,  Capt.

from  the  north  on  Sunday  with  a  good 
complement  of  passengers,  and  left 
again  yesterday  morning  for  Stewart

Portland  canal  port  is  very  hea\y,  two- 
thirds  of  the  passengers  being  booked 
for  Stewart:  Fifty  were  booked  for  the 
round  trip.  .\mong  those  booked  for 
Stewart  and  return  were:  J.  Craddock

BRIG   W.   G.   IRWIN 

HAS    BEEN    SCUTTLED 

Sailor    Which    Hae    Been   X,ylag   at   Ban 

Prancieco    with    Cargo    Smouldering 

for   Weeks    Has   Been   Sunk 

SAX  fc'R.^JVCiSCO,  August  12.— 
With  a  $30,000  cargo  on  board,  a 
Sound  vessel  Was  sunk  in  the  bay  of 
San  Francisco  yesterday.  The  ship 
will  later  be  raised,  but  the  cargo  will 
he  lost. 

It  was  the  old  brig  Wililam  G.  Irwin 
that  was  scuttled  by  order  of  the  own-- 
crs.  For  more  than  a  month  the 
packet  has  been  lying"  In  the  harbor 
with  her  cargo  of  lime  smouldering, 
and  all  efforts  to  smother  the  flames 
have  been  In  vain.  There  was  dang'er 
of  the  flames  eating  their  way  through 
the  vessel'.^  frame,  and  as  a  last  resort 
it   was   decided    to  sink    the  craft. 

Holes  were  cut  into  the  hull  on  both 
sides  yesterday,  and  in  a  short  time  the 
brig  had  settled  at  the  bottom  of  the 
bay.  Jt  Is  believed  that  her  hull  was 
not  much  damaged  by  the  fire  that  has 
been   smouldering   for   so    long  a   time.

tain went  up  at  th-  \  theatre 
lust  night  here  was  depicud  4.hc  set- 
ting for  one  of  the  strongest  dramas 
the  Allen  Players  have  staged  during 
their  summer  stock  season  at  the  Vic- 
toria theatre  this  year,  and  although 
the  opening  act  of  "The  Transgressor" 
is  not  the  strongest  p(  the  play,  there 
was  enough  action,  as  llje  story '^p;f  the 
redemption  of  Owen  Conway  was_  un- 
folded, to  insure  the  popularity  of  the 
drama  for  a  full  week's  run.  "The 
Transgres.sor"  is  undoubtedly  stronger 
in  stage  form  than  it  Is  in  book  form 
as  ".My  Mctmic  Rose,"  and  It  builds  its 


fcHtnesorae  miss  who  offers  a  good  Sing-

pear this  week.  Both  possess  good 
voices  and  offer  an  amusing  turn.  After

SCURVY   ON   BQARD 

Trench  Bark  Karle  Beaches  the  Golden 
Oat*    with    Sickness    Among    Oraw 


SAX  FR.A  XOISCO,  August  12.— 
Scurvy  ravaged  the  crew  of  the  French 
iiark  ^nrle  when  laggard  winds  kept 
the  w-indjammer  at  sea  for  189  days 
on  Its  vo>age  from  Rotterdam.  The 
, vessel's  supply  p(  vegetalijes  became 
exhausted,,  and  \kc  dlsettse  laid  low 
most  of  the  members  of  the  crew.  J. 
Kehelard  succumbed  and  his  body  wae 
burled  at  sea.  All  except  three  of  the 
other  members  of  the  crew  have  re- 
covered. It  Is  many  years  since  a 
"Scurvy"  ship  has  entered  this  port. 
The  Marie  will  be  released  from  rtuar- 
antlne  after  thorough  fnmlgatton.

max where  Owen  C'  ■  'he 
Lord's  Prayer. from  tiic  llp.s  oC  the  wo- 
man whose  life  has  entered  his  own 
for  his  betterment.  For  a  scene  that  is 
wonderfully  dramatic  there  will  be 
many  plays  that  will  come  without  pro- 
ducing the  like,  and  a.s  told  i  by  Miss 
I'clton  «.s  Marie  Deerlng  and  by  G.  D. 
Zucco  as  Owen  Conway,  every  word 
.spoken  Is  emphasized  to  tlio  syllat)le. 
The  audience  sat .  enthralled  nt  this  ef- 
fective stage  picture,  the  clothes  worn 
by  the  woman  and  by  the  rough  man 
of  the  underworld,  making  the  charac- 
ters so  much  more  distinctive,,  and  add- 
ing to  the  force  of  the  dialogue.  .As  _ 
t)ie  man  reaches  out  with  Jiis  heart's 
strength  for  -the  bette'-  things  of  na- 
ture which  the  wom:'-i.  teaches  h|m, 
Mr.  Zucco  makes  It  so  real  that  '  It 
becomes  human  heforiNthe  audience.  All 
thought  of  his  being  an  actor  is  dis- 
pelled, and  «  ready  sympathy  for  the 
soul  that  sees  and  trys  so  hard  to 
grn.sp  an  anchor  is  visible  on  the  faces 
below  the  stage.  The  play  is  one  of 
the  cbmpany's  best,  heralded  as  such 
by  strong  advaAce  notices,  which  have 
not  In  any  way  imdcrstated  its  strength 
anil  great  dramatic  effect,  in  seVeral  of 
the  passa.MeB  there  are  light  touches, 
the  friends  of  Conway,  Xellie,  OlUe, 
Ames  and  Casey,  providing  in  turns 
much  to  laugh  at.  The  8tr\iggle  that 
goes  on  in  the  man  as  the  right  and 
the  wrong  fight  for  his  mind  pervades, 
tin;  -.vliole  play,  so  Intellectually  does 
.Mr.  Zucco  reprerfeni  {he.  character.  Miss 
I'clion's  part  as  Marie  l.leerlng  Is  aplen- 
illdly  .suited  to  her  for  she  Is  an  ao- 
ttKnn  who  reaches  h-er  full  heights  In 
the  tragic.  'In  her  pleading  with  Con- 
\\i\y  111  the  fourth  act  where  he  be-

which  she,  was  horn,  brought  a  tumult

of  I  he  talented  conip.any  with  the  same 
measurp  of  success  as  has  been  in  all 
the  productions  by  them.  "The.  Trans-

The  meeting  next  agreed,  on  the  mo- 
tion of  Mr.  J.  Hampton,  to  request  the 
payment  by  the  city  of  40  cents  per 
square  foot  on  inside  lots  expropriated, 
and  60  cents  for. corner  lots,  over  all  the 
property   aflTected. 

Another  motion  requested  all  prop- 
erty owners,  whether  present  or  not, 
to  sign  any  cards  returned  to  the  city 
engineer  In  favor  of  the  51-foot  road  on 
Hillside  avenue. 

The  meeting  then  discussed  the  sew- 
age question.  Mr.  Manton  staiod  that 
the  sewer  work  in  their  district  would 
be  stopped  at  the  end  of  t'nls  week  for 
w^ant  of  funds,  that  Alderman  Gleasou 
had  Informed  him  no  money  could  be 
\oted  on  before  January,  and  conse- 
quently, that  the  district  would  be  with- 
out sewerage  until  next  fall.  About  M50,- 
Ono  was  .spent  this  year  on  the  city 
sewerage,  and  yet,  In  spite  of  the  sol- 
emn promises  made  to  them  by  Xutt 
mxyor  and  Alderman  Gleason  In  that 
very  hall  last  winter.  Oaklands  was 
.still  without  sewerage.  Kor  this  li^; 
blamed  the  mayor.-  Also  the  fact  tha» 
tlie  sewers  had  not  been  laid,  would  be 
given  ap  an  excuse  for  not  getting  on 
with  any  of  the  other   Improvements. 

Mr.  Clarke  said  they,  In  Oaklands,  had 
prow'n  accustomed  to  this  treatment 
after  twenty  years,  but  he  counsell.^d 
the  residents  to  club  together  and  get 
an  injunction  against  the  city  for  al- 
lowing its  drainage  to  flow  Into  the 
creek:  then  they  would  have  to  provide 
.sewers.  He  would  bring  this  forward 
at  the  next  meeting  of  the  Oakl,Tnls 
developmeiW    league.

Provincial  Minister  of  Public 
Works  and  Other  Britisli 
Colum'bia  Visitors  Warmly 
Received  at  San  Francisco, 


Hon.  Thomas  Taylor,  minister  of 
public  works,  returned  home  yesterday 
from  Kan  Francisco,  where  he  had  been 
attending  the  convention  of  the  Pacific 
Highway  aPsnrintlon,  and  where  he  read 
a  paper  on  the  "ftoads  of  British  Co- 
himbta." 

Mr.  Taylor  reporl.s  that  the  other 
B-  C.  representatives  nnj  he  himself 
were  given  the  very  heartiest  sort  of  a 
welcome,  and  the  work  which  Is  being 
done  In  the  province  In  the  way  of  pro- 
\iding  good  road.s  was  rcferrod  to  In 
terins  of  high  pralfrij  by  all  those  speak- 
ers who  have  had  the  privilege  of  going 
o\tT  any  of  them.  In  the  course  of  his 
paper  Mr.  Tavlor  said: 

"Tour  cnthu.slasm  has  extended  be- 
yond the  imaginary  line  and  has  re- 
sulted In  the  forniallon  of  a  sister  as- 
sociation, known  as  the  Canadian  Hi|«l-,- 
ways  association,  and  whP.e  you  have 
mapped  out  a  plan  of  campaign  most 
unique  and  far-reaching  in  Its  ob.lects, 
namely:  the  building  of  a  highway  from 
Blaine  on  the  Inlerr  atlonal  boundary 
to  the  border  of  Mexico,  our  associa- 
tion, aided  and  encounged  by  your  en- 
thi;slasm,  has  evolved  an  undertaklnjt 
ot  even  greater  magnitude,  which  has 
for  Its  object  the  building  of  a  highway 
from  Albernl  on  the  V'aclfic,  to  Halifax 
on  the'Atlantlc. 

"The  responsibility  for  the  construc- 
tion of  the  main  Mghway  through  the 
province  of  British  Columliia,  known 
locally  as  the  tranaprovlnclal  road, 
rests  with  me.  This  highway  will  have 
a  distance  on  the  mainland  of  700  miles 
an<l  upon  the  Island  of  Vancouver  of 
160  miles.  Of  this  mileage  at  least  S60 
iB  already  completed,  and  the  balancs 
•Ither  In  process  of  construction  or  lo- 
cstlon."

Leading 


Laboratories  of  World. 


After  quite  the  busiest  "holiday"  he 
ever  experienced,  PurHtor  Krank  Ker- 
mode, of  the  provincial  nuiseuni,  re- 
turned on  Sunday  afternoun  .  |roni  a 
trip  to  Europe.  En  route  ho  visited 
many  of  the  leading  cities  on  this  con- 
tinent. Ab  reirardB  Canadian  museums, 
Mr.  Kermode  Is  assured  that  no  other 
province  is  in  the  same  class  as  B.  C, 
certainly  not  in  raammalia  aftd  bird 
exhibits. 

In  Keneral  display  he  notes  that  the 
American  museums  are  very  much 
ahead  of  the  Continental  and  British 
museums,  the  .\merlcans  mounting 
.Tnd  groupinB  their  animals  and  birds 
on  a  much  larger  scale  and  with  Bur- 
roundlngs  and  foliage  similar  to  the

Is  located  on  the  new 
suburban  electric  line. 
Thus  transportation  is 
assured  and  nearness  to 
the  city.  The.  lots  are  all 
large  and  well  situated, 
nnd  they  vary  in  char- 
acter from  clear  to 
charmingly  av  o  o  d  e  d. 
thus  pleasing  all  tastes. 
The  neighborhood  will 
he  among  the  best  for 
-esidential  p  u  r  pose  s. 
Thoc  lots  are  quarter 
acres  and  actually  closer 
to  town  than  Esquimalt 
— as  close  as  Oak  Ray. 
With  city  water  and 
good  transi)ortation, 
thc}-  will  appeal  to  liun- 
dreds  of  newcomers  dur- 
ing the  next  few  months, 
and  because  present 
prices  are  .so  low,  tlinse 
who  buy  now  will  be 
able  to  add  a  handsome 
profit  and  yet  sell  at  a 
reasonable  figure. 

For  a  few  days 
more,  what  remains 
of  Garden  City 
Park  will  be  sold  at 
original  prices, 

$400  to 
$500  Each 

$50  cash    and    balance 
$15  a  month. 


These  lots  will  make 
money  for  their  owners 
without  the  slightest 
doubt.  But  original 
prices  will  last  for  a  very 
sbort  time  now,  and  then 
advance.

One  of  the  attraction*  of  Hamburg 
is  the  wonderful  collection  df  animals 
ox  Kiul  Hagenbeok.  Mr.  Hugenbeck  is 
faiiious  aii  a  wild  aiilmul  broker,  and 
Juatly  80,  but  he  has  a  zoological  i)ark 
there  wllliout  any  eQual  save  in  nature 
it«elt'.  Besides  the  buildings  In  which 
the  tamer  has  the  animals,  those  Just 
received  or  those  about  lo  be  shipped 
or  those  to  whom  the  free  Hanse  cli- 
mate is  unsulted,  there  are  acres  and 
acres,  cunningly  partitioned.  In  which 
the  wildest  and  most  dangerous  beasts 
are  turner!  loose  lo  pasture,  and,  in 
Some  cases  to  graze,  but  the  carnivorl 
Ctiu  ba  au  •turned  loose  and  not  recog- 
nize that  they  are  confined.  No  fences, 
or  but  few,  are  visible,  but  deep,  cun- 
ningly designed,  impassible  trenches, 
which  cannot  be  jumi)ed,  separate  the 
king  of  beasts,  or  the  man-eating  tiger, 
from  the  ^i)ectator  who.  for  the  sum  of 
one-«iuarter,  vialts  their  haunty.  Every 
kind  of  scenery  Is  provided,  so  that  the 
four-footed  prisoners  may  Imagine 
themselves  In  their  native  wilds;  the 
rh.imols  and  rocky  mountain  goat  have 
hills  and  rocks  whoreoii  to  sport;  tho 
deer  find  excellent  browsing;  while  the 
buffalo  and  wild  ox  can  graze  to  their 
heart's  content. 

Returning  to  England  via  Cologne 
and  Flushing,  Mr.  Kermode  spent  the 
remainder  of  his  time  before  embarking 
on  the  EmpreBS  of  Ireland  visiting 
Liverpool  and  Edinburgh,  In  which  lat- 
ter city  he  inspected  the  well-manage  l 
museum,  which  8hat;es  with  the  British 
MafSttm  Itip  honors  and  emoluments  o«

MUNICIPAL 


pleasant  cities;  but  Mr.  Kermode  " 
self  hns  come  back  convinced 
\\  I'atever  art  and  tradition  have  done 
in  other  parts  of  the  world,  there  is 
no  city  or  plate  that  can  compare 
favorably  with  the  .scenic  and  climactic 
advantages  of  the  British  Columbian 
capital. 

Kla   rirst  Stop 

Mr.  Kermode's  first  Important  stop 
was  made  In  Chicago,  where  he, noted 
the  larg-er  scale  of  grouping  the  ani- 
mal e.vhibits  and  their  ai>proprlate  sur- 
roundings. Passing  on  to  Ontario,  the 
exhibits  were  found  in  a  chaotic  state, 
awaiting  the  completion  of  their  home, 
and  in  Ottawa  the  same  thing  was  not- 
ed. Although  the  museum  Is  complet- 
ed, but  few  of  the  e.xhibits  are  yet  out 
of  the  packing  cases.  Journeying 
southward  to  Washington,  the  A'ictor- 
lan  fell  Into  the  able  aild  kindly  hands 
o-f  Dr.  Walcott,  secretary  of  the  Smith- 
sonian Institute,  and  Dr.  Merrlam,  wh'), 
althougli'  he  ha?  resigned  his  office  of 
director  of  biology,  stlH  retains  his 
active  Ihterest  as  a  member  of  the  ad- 
visory board.  By  the  courtesy  and 
care  of  these  gentlemen  Mr.  Kermode 
saw  everything  worth  seeing  In  the  in- 
stitute. In  the  national  museum,  nnd. 
Indeed,  In  the  federal  capital.  The.se, 
or.  rather.  th!«,  lnstUutlon--for  the  in- 
stitute and  national  nm.=ieum  are  prac- 
tically one — is  undouittedly  the  richest 
and  ino.st  up-to-date  In  existence:  and, 
among  many  other  e.xhlblts,  Including 
Sfmie  Hfiit  from  this  i)rovjnce,  he  noted 
.sf-\pral  mounted  groups  and  some  as 
>  et  Incomplete,  the  result  of  the  ex- 
pedition  of  Col.   Roosevelt   to   .Africa. 

Proceeding  to  New  York.  .Mr.  Ker- 
mode attended  the  annual  convention 
of  the  American  .Associations  of 
Museumn,  of  which  organization  he  is 
a  charter  member.  Many  valuable 
hints  were  secured  In  the  papfers  read 
and  in  the  experiences  Interclianged 
with  curators  and  directors  of  mus- 
eum.s  scattered  across  a  big  continent. 
.Most  of  the  meetings  were  held  In  the 
New  York  Museum  of  Natural  His- 
tory, but  others  were  held  in  the 
Brooklyn  Museum  of  Arts  and  Sciences 
and  in  New  York  Zoological  Park,  and, 
of  course,  the  Metropolitan  Museum  ol 
Arts. 

Saw  Xie«(Ung  Haseum* 

Sailing  for  Kngland  in  the  Oceanic, 
after  an  uneventful  voyage,  a  busy 
period  was  spent  between  the  three 
branches  of  the  British  Mu.ieum,  from 
the  hoadriuarters  in  Bioomsbury  to  the 
South  Kensington,  where  the  animals, 
birds  and  insuft.";  are  displayed,  and 
famed  Liethnai  Green,  where  the  tech- 
nical exhibits  prlnclpi'lly  are.  In 
South  Kensington  Mr.  Kermode  saw 
his  na-iriesake,  "Ursus  Kermodl," 
mounted,  \vith  the  Inscription  stating 
that  this  bear  was  a  gift  from  the  e.x- 
ecutlve  council  of  Brltlsii  IJolumbla. 
The  famous  zoo  was,  of  course,  visited, 
and  It  la  noteworthy  that  this  and  the 
New  York  Zoological  are  owned  and 
kept  up  by  private  societies.  A  special 
Invitation  was  recehed  from  Lord 
Pontypridd  to  attend  the  laying  of  the 
corner-stone  of  the  new  National  Mus- 
eum of  \\'ales  at  Cardiff  by  the  King, 
the  Queen,  and  so  many  notables  were 
liresent  that  enumeration  was  (lulte 
impossible.  Mi'.  Kermode,  later  in  the 
day.  attended  the  official  banquet  In 
cimnection  with  the  ceremony,  and 
then,  Journeying  to  Bristol,  where  the 
King  and  Queen  were  present  at  the 
Inauguration  of  a  ho.^pltal,  he  was 
again    royally    entertained. 

While  In  I.iondon, .  with  Hon.  Dr. 
Young,  Mr.  Kermode  attended  the 
Canadian  club  bamiuet  cm  Dominion 
Day  and  the  reception  at  Dord  Strath- 
cona's  subserjiientb'.  There  were  many 
Canadians  there,  and  among  the  Vic- 
torians he  noted  Mr.  C.  K.  Redfern,  Mr. 
and  Mrs.  .Arthur  VVolfenden  and  Mr. 
Percy  Brov.n, 

Paris  v\as  the  next  stopidng  place,

spite Its  name,  la  a  very  fine  zoo,  and 
the  historic  remains  and  relics  of  tha£ 
wonderful  city.  He  noted  Incidentally 
with  an  Immense  wealth  of  well  Classi- 
fied material,  the  French  museum

and  have  not  expended  the  Ingenuity 
Of  the  new  world  In  the  educative  dis- 
play of  their  treasure.M.  Krom  Paris

Journey  waB  made  to  Frankfurt  and

buildings,  from  which  the  OermanB 
have  so  happily  kept  the  march  of  pro- 
gress, although  they  have  never  let 
that  be  Impeded.  Here  they  were 
taken  charge  of  by  Professor  Straus- 
sen,  who  haa  been  In  America,  and 
who  la  m  full  Bympathy  with  the  moat

The  «ouncil  went  to  the  extent  of  In- 
vesting 936,000  in  a  creosotlng  pUnt 
and  got  experience  of  wood-block  pave- 
ment. A  sticceedlng  council  reversed 
that  policy  when  appealed  to  .by 
asphalt  ptivlng  contractors,  aiid  adopt- 
ed a  system  that  they  had  no  previous 
experience  with  whatever.  1  am  pre- 
pared to  prophesy  that  the  tlrst  piece 
of  pavement  laid  on  Douglas  street  will 
outlast  any  of  the  asphalt  pavements 
since  laid  down,  and  will  prove  to  be 
the  cheapest  In  the  long  run.  besides 
which,  instettd  of  sendinitf  thousands  of 
dollars  out  of  the  country  to  foreign 
contractors  ar«l  for  material  we  would 
be  using  native  products.  *Anotht'r 
cont^rete  Instance  of  the  unworkable 
nature  of  the  present  system  Is  in  Its 
treatment  of  officials.  Hero  In  Vic- 
toria the  council,  ha^-lng  Rot  a  cer- 
tain officer,  its  members  vied  with  one 
another  to  see  \vho  would  be  first  to 
.secure  for  him  full  control  of  his  de- 
partment, and  six  months  later  they 
were  vying  to  be  first  to  move  for  his 
disTnissa!." 

There  was  an  ali'solute  waste  ff 
money  all  rotmd,  not  only  hei'e  but 
In  all  cities  under  the  same  system  of 
Kovernment,  Mr.  Dean  ««ld,  and  he 
added:  "Members  of  council  do  m>t  re- 
gard history,  they  have  no  mamorics 
and  they  have  no  watchdog  «t  all — or 
If  they  have  he  Is  apparently  a8lee<p  all 
the    time." 

Mr,  Dean  roundly  condemned  the 
single  tax  and  what  he  termed  kindred 
nostrums  which  were  adopted  by  the 
public   unthinkingly. 

Zionger    Terms    for    Aldsnnen 

Mr.  J.  J.  Shallcro.'i.s,  pre.'ildent  of  the 
board  of  trade,  wa.s  heard  at  the  after- 
noon sitting.  He  prefaced  his  re- 
marks by  saying  that  In  19  years'  ex- 
perience in  Victoria  he  had  noticed  an 
entire  absence  of  any  charges  of  cor- 
ruption or  improper  conduct  on  the 
part  of  coimcll  members,  but  there  had 
been  great  evi'dence  of  incapacity  and 
undue  lack  of  attention  to  public  busi- 
ness. Two-thirds  of  the  evils  com- 
plained of  were  due  to  the  short  term 
of  office :  the  members  of  council  were 
honest  and  up  to  the  average  In  ability. 
There  should  be  undouhieilly  a  longer 
term.  What  he  hod  to  propose  was 
that  there  he  three  aldermen  elected 
for  each  ward  for  a  three-year  term, 
one  retiring  In  each  ward  yearly,  which 
he  considered  would  give  continuity 
of  service  and  the  opjNortunlty  for  an 
Infusion  of  npw  blood.  The  mayor 
woiild  be  elected  annually.  The  Brit- 
ish practice  gave  a  two-year,  three- 
year  and  even  as  much  as  a  six-year 
term. 

Mr.  Shall  cross  gave  several  In- 
stances of  money  bylaws  and  the  re- 
spective votes  upon  them  to  prove  hL» 
contention  that  nine-tenths  of  these 
are  voted  upon  without  any  knowledge 
liy  the  ratepayers  of  what  they  are 
really  doing.  There  was  no  discussion 
of  the  pros  and  cons  on  any  of  these 
money  bylaws  or  referendums  before 
the  vote  took  place,  and  the  result  was 
largely  a  matter  of  accident,  i)[Ood 
propositions  being  defeated  and  ques- 
tionable ones  being  carried  Just  as  fre- 
quently and  as  accidentally  as  the  re- 
verse took  place.  Mr.  fhalUrogs  de- 
clared his  adhesion  to  the  ward  aystem 
but  added  that  whatever  the  system  It 
should  he  uniform  throughout  the 
province;  that  the  law  should  fix  what 
tlie    system    was    to    be. 

Mr.  Bull  asked  what  the  witness 
tliouglit  nf'die  likPliiiood  of  the  voters 
electing   good   men    as    commissioners. 

"The  voter  would  not  vole  for  the 
expert  but  for  the  man  he  liked,"  re- 
plied Mr.  Shalleross.  "The  men  elected 
to  councils  now  are  not  unworthy  of 
the  office  but  their  term  is  too  short 
to  enaWe  them  to  Klve  B09d  service. 
CommlHsioners,  if  elected  by  a  council. 
Would  be  good  men,  bht  If  you  put  the 
power  of  election  In  the  hands  of  the 
voters  they  would  be  no  better — and  no 
worse — than  your  present  council." 

Mr.  Shalleross  did  not  believe  the 
people  would  approve  of  appolntlva 
comml8«4onera,  and  was  opposed  to  the 
recall.  Tf  It  was  necessary  to  remove 
a  commissioner  it  would  ba  In  the  pow- 
er of  the  council  to  do  »o  by  a  sub- 
atantfal  majority,  say  four-flfths.  The 
mayor  should  bs  paid  a  sufllclentljr 
large  salarj'.  as  civic  government  nowa- 
days  took  up  the  f'Ml  time  of  any 
mayor.

sion to  votes  a  difllcutty  which  haa

Enameled 
Kitchen  Things 

^  We  dare  say  every  woman 
who  keeps  house,  has  had  at 
least  one  experience  with  poor 
enameled  ware-the  prices  quoted 
on  "seconds"  and  "thirds"  are 
very  alluring  at  times,  and  one  is 
tempted  to  take  a  chance. 

^  With  the  prices  of  the  very 
highest  grade  as  low  as  at  present 
it  is  fallacy  to  buy  inferior  grades. 

^  With  ordinary  care  good 
enameled  ware  will  last  a  life- 
time— it  is  the  safest  to  use  and 
the  cheapest  in  the  long  run. 

^  Only  sort  we  sell

(Julia  Orff  in  Tlio  l.'liibwoman. ) 
One  reason  I  so  atrongley  recommend 
mercollzed  wax  is  tliat  It  really  takes 
the  pUee  of  aeveral  differ  Tit  coHm?tlc«, 
saving  time,  patience  and  expense.  It 
1h  better  than  aJiy  cleansing  cr?ani, 
better  than  any  niasacge  cream,  tind 
b€ltt-i  than  aii>  rouij;',  fcr  accompllwti- 
inf  the  reaulta  for  which  audi  urtlcles 
arc  used.  As  the  wax  actually  aba>>rb8  an 
old,  faded  or  discolored  cuticle,  a  little 
each  day,  the  underlying  skin  which 
gradually  appears,  la  clearer,  softer, 
h-ealthler-hued  and  more  youthful  than 
any  cosmetlr-made  comrl^xloii.  Spread- 
ing on  a  thin  coal  of  tliis  wax  at  night. 
"■-"hin?  !t  -yft  Tir>rolrce-«  in  n  week  or 
so  produces  a  marvellous  transforma- 
tion. Just  one  ounce  of  inercoU/.fd 
wax,  obtainable  at  any  driiK.storo,  will 
do  the  work.  Theire's  nothing  lielti^r 
to  remove  freckles,  lan,  BallowneKS, 
blolche".,    pimples   or   blackiiead.>»
